Beach Days

We live only miles from the ocean, but it took us three weeks to make it out to the beach. Getting through the stacks and stacks of boxes along with starting a new job and a new school really turned our world upside down. Once we finally cleared enough space to park one vehicle in the garage, we decided we were overdue for a break to the sandy coast.

Those cheeks though.

Troy’s mom came out to visit and was incredibly helpful when I came down with strep for the third time this winter. I think it’s safe to say that the stress of the move and spending every waking moment putting the house in order combined with four young children and a baby who wakes up multiple times a night hasn’t helped my immune system much. I don’t know what I would have done without her while I was stuck in bed with a fever for a few days.

I don’t think these boys are going to have any problem becoming California boys.
