The Artist

Hard at work on top of the table

creativity flows in odd places sometimes

and sometimes we just need the freedom to do it

little hands

the tongue

Let it flow girl

The Beach

The next thing we did was the beach.

Pure Joy.  The water was a little chilly, but still fun to be there.  Mike and Grace did some boogie boarding and if we were there another day I think we would have buried Mike in the sand.  We collected seashells, played in the water and the sand, ran from the waves and enjoyed the sunshine.  We watched in amazement the surfers, boats on the horizon and how the sand glistened like it was dusted with gold.

The Pier

The first thing we did when we got to sunny California was go out on the pier.
Being around the water was heaven.

We saw the Marines training on the pier, a photo shoot, people fishing, pelicans.  We could see a lot of surfers, and one day we heard it rumored that you could see wales out there, although we didn't see them that day. 
The views were amazing.

Spring things

Hand picked flowers from Isabel

and my mail for the day.

Isabel now can ride without training wheels

Way to go Isabel!

Isabel getting x-rays at the dentist.

She did so well!

When did she get so big?

Grace had Pioneer Days at school

My Mom hand-made the dress she is wearing

Tulips that came to see me this year

Flip flop season is my fav.

That's her "I am done with pictures" look,

which is so cute I had to take a picture, right?

Yum.

Can you hear me yelling "Noooooooo!" as

I body dive across the lawn?

Not really, but I thought about it.

Have a great week!

Sunset in San Diego

One hotel we stayed in had video games.  Rad.

And they shared like angels and everyone was in harmony.  Not.

But still cool.

We stayed at hotels that had pools.

Lots of time spent in the pool.

Which is also very cool on vacation.

Fearless warrior girl.

Another San Diego sunset

Welcome to Lego Land.

Random photo while standing in line at Lego Land.

Exciting - I know. 

Ok, thats it for now.

Tomorrow is Friday.

Happy Friday!
