Monterey

We took advantage of the long Labor Day weekend and took a trip to Monterey. Our older son loves the aquarium and it was the little one's first time. He was a little unsure the first day, but it didn't take him long to warm up. There were soon lots of "ooh's and ahh's".

We got to play in the tide pools and check out lots of ocean critters.

Shane got to boogie board. The weather was beautiful for the weekend... sunny and warm!

And Wyatt stalked the birds on the beach...

Weekend Getaway

My hubby and I had a weekend getaway for our 6th anniversary this weekend... with no kids!!! We went to my in-law's cabin at Philbrook Lake. The lake is just so beautiful and peaceful. Brooks did quite a bit of fishing, mostly from our dock.

I went out for a few kayak rides. I love to kayak into the Channel. The water twists through the willows and you can watch ducks, woodpeckers, quail, fish, and all kinds of wildflife. The sound of the wind blowing through the trees is just magical. I could just hang out in there all day.

We had a really nice weekend. Quiet, peaceful.... Now, it's back to the hustle and bustle that is life with two kids. I'll be heading to the creek with the kids this week as the temperature in Chico will be in the 100's. During naps I'll be busy sewing. I have orders to get out and another Thursday Night Market to get ready for. Happy Monday!
