Some beach!

I found a last minute deal on a condo in CA, so we hit the road for a long weekend in San Diego.
I won’t lie to you, my friends. The weekend held many tears, boogie noses, coughs, and wheezing chests. It was a little rough going as we all (except Luke!) fought off the flu.
We did enjoy ourselves, mostly. Here are a few photos to help us remember the good times.
I tried to wipe noses before taking a photo, but you can’t catch them all, and I don’t have time to edit.

I’ve stopped asking the kids to “pose” for the camera. We smoosh them together to get them all in one frame and hope for the best. If they don’t look, no biggie. If they happen to smile, yay!

Lars taking his very first unassisted steps on the beach. Little wobbly, but he quickly got the hang of it.

I think Miles is wishing we had traveled all the way back to Australia….

Lyla did not want the sand on her, and she did not want Lars’s sandy hands on her either.

“A mess!” Lyla said over and over again.

She also didn’t want the sand on me.

Luke was NOT on the phone all weekend.

I didn’t have my camera’s focus point set in the middle when I handed it to Luke. Love how the stroller is in focus. I still think it’s a cute picture.




Plenty more photos to come. Just sit tight.
