Bike Ride Along the Coast

The kids had this past Friday off of school, so we headed to the ocean for a bike ride. The weather was beautiful. I think it was about 75 degrees which is really nice for the coast. Our first stop was glass beach, where a long time ago it was a dumping ground (can you believe that) and now there is tons of glass left.
The kids thought we found treasure!! It was really pretty!


This was the bike trail which was right along the coast. This tree grew to the side because of the wind.
Photo op under the tree.
Time for lunch.

There were sea lions out on the rocks. I swear it was like National Geographic, we saw ducks, a goose, some other cool birds that walked on water, snails, a snake and some really cool looking mushrooms.

Before we left, the crazy kids wanted to take a dip in the ocean...it was cold!! Ah, to be a kid with no worries in the world. Emma kept saying that "this will be a day I will always remember." Me too!!

Sunshine

It seems like it has been raining for weeks, which has been really nice but it means we have been indoors alot. Last week we had some clear sky's and took advantage of it. The kids and I met Aunt Kaitlyn at the park and the kids were able to get some energy out. It was a really nice day. Today and for the rest of the week we are back to rain.



Jacob's 4

On January 29th our baby turned four years old. We just had a small party with Grandma, Grandpa, Kaity and Brandon. Jacob wanted a Wall-E cake, so that is what he got. I think he had a great birthday!

We are so proud of you Jacob, everyday it seems like you are learning something new. You are such a big boy now! We love you very much!

A Very Merry Christmas!

This Christmas we stayed in California and celebrated with my family. It was extra special because my Grandma from Canada was here. It has been many years since we had Christmas with her.

A week or so before Christmas we were at the mall to do some shopping and got to see Santa himself.


On Christmas eve the fam came over for dinner and my Grandma, mom and I went to church. It was really nice.
Looks like Santa came.

This is all Jacob wanted for Christmas, he would have been happy if that was all he had gotten.

We got to my parents around 12:00 for round two.
My sweet, sweet Grandma!


Emma was the one behind the camera. It is a tradition to open crackers and wear the hats during dinner.

Santa got us girls all matching p.j. pants.
I love this picture...great times, great memories, WONDERFUL Christmas!

Funny Faces!!

This was the first day of preschool for Jacob. He was super excited, I had to get a picture.
This is a picture of Daisy and Bella (my dog and my sisters) in their matching sweaters. I know stupid but sooo cute!!!
I went to pick Jacob up from preschool yesterday and instead ended up taking home spiderman. We went to the farmers market on the way home and he was a big hit. It's big news around here when a superhero comes to visit :)
Last weekend Emma went to a fairy princess birthday party. She also got her face painted and had ALOT of fun. She is still doing great in school and just started her third year of dance. Her recital is in May if anyone wants to come watch, hehe.

Happy 6th Birthday Emma!!

So our little girl just celebrated her 6th birthday...you heared me right, she's six. We can't believe it. We had her party at K.O.A. campground which was wonderful. They had a bouncy house, water splash park, petting zoo, climbing gym and the list goes on and on. The best part of all is they provided the food and cake and we didn't have to clean up. Woo Hoo.

Emma and her friend Alyssa.
They were covered in sand. It was everywhere.
Happy birthday our sweet girl!
Now it's off to the water.


Some of the girls, the kids were everywhere.

Jacob and the kid from Jerry Mcquire,haha it's just his buddy Jack.
Present time. Emma is a very lucky girl to be surrounded by such great friends. We had a wonderful day.
Emma it is hard to believe that you are a six year old 1st grader. We hope you have a great year, we are so proud of you and love you very much.
