San Diego Photographer in Progress: Two Years Until the Half Century Mark

Yup! I am now two years away from the half century mark of my life. Funny thing is that I don't feel like it. So take that universe! And to celebrate, I asked my girls to come with me to Balboa Park at sunrise for some photo time.

Taking Alia with me, we picked Ana up at 5:30 am, then picked up Jessica, and together, we hit Peet's up for some caffeine. Being that two of my girls are Peet's baristas, I always get a really good peppermint mocha.

My peppermint mocha made with love.

My favorite part of the day at Balboa Park is sunrise. There are hardly any people there at the time which makes for perfect picture taking conditions. Now if I could only get the girls to cooperate at the same time.

A little cooperation would be nice.

Three hours and hundreds of shots later, we headed home for some breakfast made by the boys, PapaBear and Dakota. Eggs, bacon, tater tots and orange juice!

After breakfast, it was time to watch the Michigan versus Western Michigan game with PapaBear while the girls took naps. The neighbors across the street could have heard me yelling as Michigan beat Western Michigan with a score of 34-10!!! During the game, a delivery man came and brought me a beautiful fruit basket from my Mami'!
