TOKYO!!!!!!!!🇯🇵 First trip to Tokyo and we had the best time ever 🙌🏽 Everything about Tokyo was amazing, but top things that stick out are how safe it is, how clean it is, and how amazing the sushi and food overall is. We mostly used the train system to get everywhere and it was super easy to navigate, very efficient. The people are welcoming and so kind and helpful. The technology is mind blowing. TeamLab Planets was everything and more. We had sushi that was beyond anything we’ve ever had. Explored Shinjuku, Shibuya, Harajuku, Omotesando, Ginza, Akihabara, Asakusa, Marunouchi, and more. Such an amazing experience we are so thankful for this break from real life and can’t wait to go back 🙏🏽

Your EBC SoCal 2025 👑KING OF THE COURT👑 + Outstanding Performer (top kids in 4th/5th) + Top 20 All-Stars 🔥🔥🔥
The kid is 5’3” at 9 years old, has hit 40 points in three different games, and is a BEAST. When I tell you he’s currently going at about 50% and is going to be unstoppable when 100% kicks in, you should probably believe me 💯 Keep going kid. 🎯
Thank you always @elitebasketballcircuit @grassroots365 @scope.scouting 🙏🏽

These two. Not sure how or when but it’s going too fast. Nico is 9 in 3rd grade, William is 12 in 6th finishing up his first year of middle school. Both over 5’ feet tall and in a blink I know the day is coming they’ll tower over me (it makes me sad to think about it) I want to freeze time.

[check out Nico’s @therock face 😂]

Thank you for capturing my boys Bettina @bn_photography_ 🙏🏽

HAPPY 8th BIRTHDAY to my favorite little guy on the planet! You are the greatest little human I’ve ever known and we can’t wait to watch you continue to grow into the young man you are becoming (but slow down please). Excited for you and all that is ahead of you on this journey. We love you more than anything Nico ❤️❤️
