Last Trip to Buellton

Dan and Carmen are getting ready to pick up and move to Arizona, so we made one last trip to Buellton to visit them before they go. They will be spending the month of October here in Orange County before moving on to Arizona.
Of course, we had to pick some blueberries because it's a Buellton tradition.

We've enjoyed visiting Grandma and Grandpa in Buellton, and we can't wait to see what adventures await us in Arizona.

Seth David Hoggard

Seth David Hoggard made his grand entrance into this world on July 7th! He weighed in at 7lbs. 10oz, practically preemie size compared to Mandy's other kids.

Mandy was going for the distinction of having all three of her boys born on the same date. Nolan and Evan were both born on July 6th, 9 years apart. Two years later, Seth almost made it into the club, but he took his sweet time and arrived on July 7th.

Before leaving for the hospital, a very pregnant Mandy threw a little birthday party for Nolan and Evan.

The cousins, minus Seth who was only a few days old. I guess you're not allowed to ride on a tractor until you're at least a week old.

Instead, Seth snuggled me and took a nap. It's a rough life.
