Roadtrip part #2

After waking up to a mommy and baby deer in the field outside our deck, we headed out to point lobos! It was beautiful!

View of china bay(?)

Callie enjoyed the views but wasn't to keen on riding in the stroller despite the poison oak in the area, so we didn't stay for too long. She took a little nap in the car while we drove through the 17 mile drive north of Carmel. Mike particularly enjoyed this part of the trip since he didn't need to leave the car!

We checked in to portola hotel and got some delicious warm cookies. Ate some yummy sandwiches at an Italian cafe across the way and spent the rest of the afternoon with The Yungs at Denice the Menance park. Callie loved it! Maddy and Jackson were such great kids - it was adorable watching them play together and sharing/taking turns and helping each other out!

Helping each other with the drinking fountain!

We had a delicious dinner in downtown - where C and M had a great time singing the Itsy bitsy spider. We got back and slept pretty darn late! 11pm for Callie! Yikes!

And our first day in Monterey came to an end. :)

Graduating from 2015 school year!

Callie is growing up! She finished the 2015 school year at R&W! They are a great little school and have great large blocks for their imagination (this was a rocket ship) and they got to vote on which peppers they liked to eat. (Callie said red, but I don't think she liked any of them!) her teachers Sarah and Diana are the best, just look at those smiles!!

Cousins

It's always so much fun with the cousins come to visit! Although Judah is still a little young, Callie and mikki are having a grand old time!!

Going shopping

Recently C rediscovered her strawberry shortcake shopping cart. She put moo moo in it and promptly went to town grabbing things to buy! I gave her a purse full of coins and it was so cute to watch her pay me in coins everything she was purchasing (a box, keys, balls). Check out the video!
