Summer days in LA






Got to spend the whole day today with an amazing friend Michaelyn from Atlanta...on the beach! It was a beautiful day, but I got very badly sunburned. I put on sunscreen...but missed some spots. Woops! You would think that being a red-head I would have learned my lesson by now. :)
Then she took us to her favorite lunch spot on Main St. in Santa Monica called Panini. Deliciouso!!!

Earlier this week we got to go down to Huntington Beach to visit some of Ryan's old riding buddies. It was a blast, great to see them all, and very nostalgic for Ryan. He hadn't seen some of these guys in close to 7 years, but they picked up right where they left off. This photo includes some of the best bike riders in the world...just to throw some names out there: Jared Rando, Carter Holland, Pablo Tafoya, Kyle Strait, and of course Ryan Smith :) We hope to get to see these guys a couple more times before we head further north.

The kitchen is almost done. Its actually totally functional! There is running water and a fridge. The only thing left is a little bit of paint touch up, and Ryan is working on the tile back-splash. It looks freakin incredible...totally modern, Ikea style. Great job Malia on your design work. Its amazing how much space is in this tiny little space, thanks to some smart minds who did the design work, and Ikea for making things work in small spaces! I will post finalized pics in a few days, but here it is as of today. Next up, the living room...needs a new sliding glass door, trim, new floors, and new paint. Then we will be DONE! More time to hang out on the beach :)
