Go Wawona!!

Wawona proudly supports our own Children's Hospital of Central California.  Wawona's wonderful employees helped raise money for the fourth year in a row.  Way to go Wawona!!!

 The Smittcamp family with the Children Hospital's CEO Todd Suntrapak

After the presentation, we got to drive Aubrey back to class.  She was a lucky girl and got to take a break to come be apart of the fun. :)

Dancing with the Stars!

We got to experience a LIVE taping of Dancing with the Stars!  It was a long day since we left in the early morning, drove 4 hours to Hollywood, enjoyed the show and then returned home the same night. It was ALL worth it though!   This season is the All-Star season so it made it even more fun to experience.  Thank you ladies for making it such a memorable and enjoyable day!  I love DWTS!!

Baking with Oma

I didn't grow up with my grandparents living near.  Both sets of grandparents lived far away.  They lived in Canada and we live in California.  We did get to visit them ALL the time or at least it felt that way to me.  Most summers, with my dad, mom and siblings, we would take a trip and DRIVE about 3,000 miles to Canada to visit some of my favorite relatives.  Such wonderful memories!!  

When I see pictures like this or when we drive only about mile or so to either of Aubrey's wonderful grandmas, I do not take it for granted.  It makes me smile.  It makes me thankful.  Aubrey Rose and Austin are so very blessed to live pretty much down the street from their Oma and Mimi.  What a blessing for us all, so they can share memories and moments like this.

Love you!

Bieber Fever

Yes...yes, we did.  Blake and I went to a Justin Bieber concert.  And we had so much fun!  

We went with my cousin Chelsey and Blake's sister Blair.

 It was such a treat to see Ash, Meredith and Sara!!  Thanks girls for coming by and saying hi!

Carly Rae Jepsen opened for Bieber.  It was fun watching her and singing to

Call Me Maybe??

Birthday fun!

We got to enjoy some birthday fun with Blake's family celebrating Uncle Gary for dinner and dessert.

Congrats Grandpa!

Grandpa Earl Smittcamp was recently honored by the FCOE along with four other highly deserved individuals.  It was a wonderful evening to be apart of.  I sure am proud and honored to be a Smittcamp.  :)

Congratulations Grandpa!  We sure are proud of you and the incredible way you have led our family.  We love you!
