This was filmed at Gabriel's school and some of his favorite friends are in this too, including Maya, who you will see peeking through a door.

Discovery Museum

Gabriel joined his cousin, Eva, and his Godbrother, Kale, at the Discovery Museum in Santa Maria just three days after baby Kainoa was born. It gave Kainoa's Mami and Daddy a break and let Gabriel play with two of his favorite people at the same time.

Nino Rick and Aunt Cindy's Wedding

We all enjoyed Nino Rick and Aunt Cindy's wedding in May. It was a beautiful ceremony and dinner and we were so happy for them. Gabriel was the lone child there and he conducted himself like a little gentleman . . . most of the time. We enjoyed the view of the grapes along the hillside backdrop and the dinner amongst wine barrels in a working winery. Gabriel thought Kobe, the canine ringbearer, was the highlight.

Meeting Kainoa

Gabriel is so excited that his new Godbrother was born. Just as he's getting used to his Godbrother Kale not being a baby anymore there's a new baby to enjoy.
