Although Orb won't be an official graduate (Doctor) until he gives his defense (which may be at the end of summer), we celebrated yesterday with the rest of his department and school. Orb looked quite "regal" in his purple robe and hood. Aurelia and I were (and are) so proud of him. Here are some pictures from the day!

Beach weather
We had a beautiful sunny weekend for Mother's Day. We packed up the towels, buckets and shovels and headed for the beach! Aurelia was content scooping sand into her bucket, emptying, then doing it again. Orb was content building the largest sand mountain on the beach. Allison was content laying in the sun on her beach towel.

Aurelia's 2nd Birthday
Aurelia turned 2 on March 3! We had a special family birthday celebration with Elmo cake and presents. Aurelia was a little afraid of her cake as she thought she was actually eating Elmo.
Then on Saturday we had a party at the neighborhood park with her little friends from church. All the children had lots of fun!

Update:February
We took a trip down to San Francisco mid-February to attend Allison's friend Christina's wedding. We made the most of the weekend and were able to spend time with Kyle, Jen and Keira in Mountain View and see Orb's parents for a day in SF. It was a magnificent weekend: beautiful weather, beautiful friends/family and beautiful wedding. We are trying to move down to the Sf/Bay area after Orb finishes his PhD - we'll see. Let the job hunt begin! On the 18th Allison celebrated her 27th birthday with a visit from her parents and amazing Cuban sandwiches at Paseo's. And Allison also finally finished her homage to Monet in-the-style-of Seurat painting that has taken 3 years to complete (30X30 of little Q-tip dots). It was a good month!
