We are so blessed to have a new home. We have lived here only a week and are still trying to find things in the piles of boxes. It is almost like Christmas when we open the boxes and unpack things that we have been packed away for weeks (and sometimes months). Now the challenge is to find places for everything....... Come visit anytime, the girls would love to show you around.
Our vacations usually take us far away from home. Most often we drag ourselves through the chaos of LAX at 6 am with our kids half asleep. Not this time. For a change we drove less than an hour from home, up the coast to Summerland. We rented a beautiful home up on the hillside with an incredible view of the ocean.
In June, we spent some time up at Lake Tahoe. Rick had a business trip so the girls and I tagged along to make a vacation out of it. Kate and Emma would spend every afternoon playing in the pool and the spa. Rick and I spent our afternoons chasing them as they ran back and forth from the kiddie pool to the "hot pool" (as Kate called it). The beach by the lake turned out to be much easier for all of us. The girls just played in the sand and were not very interested in going in the water. Maybe because it was a bit chilly. It was beautiful up there and we dream of one day having a place of our own there. Oh and by the way we need a cool $6-$60 million for one of the prime spots on the lake............just dreaming.
Thanks to my dear neighbor, Danielle, I finally set up our blog. I am always the last one to figure these kinds of things out, but here it is. I am totally excited to share it with our friends and family.
