Schools out for summer!









"My brother had a daughter. The beauty that she brings, illumination" - Sufjan Stevens


I couldn't stop singing that line after watching her graduate from 8th grade. I feel like I just flew out to Cali to have fun as she left elementary school... how is middle school done already? In true Cali style, the day after graduation they gathered in Pacifico for surf lessons. First try on the board and she stood right up! The water was COLD - maybe 50 degrees. My feet were completely numb trying to get a shot of the whale that was popping in the background. How cool is that? So proud of this kid :)
