what a day for a picnic

It was a beautiful day for a picnic with cousins Bree, Vivi, and Tomas at the Berkeley Marina.

rain clouds

Another day of cloudy skies and gloomy showers. We were stuck inside most last week which gave us a slight case of cabin fever. We're hoping for sunshine and blue skies this week so we can take more walks outside.

Hope you've had a wonderfully sunshiney weekend!
