More Photos Please

I absolutely love this photo (above)... thanks to Jenna Strubhar for capturing this shot of our little family. Love it, Love it, Love it.

Okay, here's some MORE random photos for ya. It's been a little windy and cloudy, but still pleasantly warm. We've been catching up with old friends, playing in the Ocean, eating amazing food and seriously Straight Kickin' - It like it's no bodies business. It's good to be here.


Some random Joelle face

Joey hanging out while daddy catches some waves at Honolua Bay... Joelle's mommy didn't get any shots of daddy "Shredding The Gnar" b/c her mom loves taking pictures of Joey more :)

Gary "Shredding the Gna... I mean, the Surf Lineup"... still a cool shot though. Nice work Court!

Mike skimboarding at Makena

Love the tongue... too cute.

The Woodard & Strubanhogen Show

Matt, Gary and Nate having a little surf comp: "Paia Bay... 3 burrly men from Oregon, 2 fishes and a longboard... one champion... which was Nate - he KILLED it!"

"Strubhar & Strubhar Painting and Associates" board meeting... "uh, maybe we should have been painting that house instead of surfing"

Joelle made friends with Mikaela (Mike & Ciara's little girl)... but then got sad for some random reason once we started taking pictures of them interacting.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?! I LOVE that first image so much! Absolutely unreal. If you don't get a huge enlargement of that done for your house, then we can't be friends anymore ;) j/k
