A Day at the Beach

We spent a lovely, hot, and sunny late November day wandering the beach, sand bowling, and touring the Hotel Del. Kel was wiped out!

The day after Thanksgiving means...

Christmas lights of course! Kel already has the attitude. Partially due to his insistence upon wearing that ridiculous vest on such a warm sunny day. Dad's just glad that there are two men for the job now. They are actually having fun. Honest.

Bit out of order, but...

Kel just had to have the photo booth picture. So, here it is now that I had a chance to scan it in (read: figure out that Mom's printer is also a scanner -- wow, modern!). Great quality for the price, no? Ha.

Happy Thanksgiving

We spent the holiday enjoying a beautiful hike in the local mountains, followed by some Play-Doh time outside (Mom will not allow it in the house!) before dinner. A gorgeous day and a wonderful holiday all around. What am I thankful for? Browse this website and you'll see most of it. Kellan, my Nic, family and friends, beautiful places, fun times, love, happiness. We are truly blessed. Happy Thanksgiving!

Smiling faces before the hike!




The Patapum still comes in handy. This was definitely a good investment all those years ago.



He did walk some of it by himself. A very little "some".







Back home for some Play-Doh time!

At the San Diego Zoo

The kid won't pose with animals or scenic zoo-like backgrounds. So, we were at the zoo. Just trust me.








Happily illustrating the difference in size between his bag of chips and his healthy sandwich.




This was a beautiful statue and he actually wanted me to take his photo with it. However, he kept standing IN FRONT of it!



Or on it.




Back on the sky ride. We only went across four times today. A record!
