Ebb and Flow


I know, I know...I'm a terrible blogger. There's just always so much to do around this place. I'm taking advantage of the fact that Sasa's here and Maddy will pretty much sit with him anywhere (even if the boy was sitting atop of a live volcano). This gives me a chance to do three things I need to get done this morning before it gets hot outside. Vancouver's looking good these days. BC, not WA.

So, our camping trip went off without a hitch. The only real problems we ran into were deciding on a campsite with the people we went with and then getting lost on a dune hike with two toddlers (my husband's rugged, but he's no Bear, YET.). Aside from that, it was fun watching the kids play on the giant dune that was behind our campsite. Even the sleep wasn't horrible (for the kids - Richie and I suffered silently, one more so than the other ;)). It's a totally different feeling, camping with another family. It was fun, but it's a little more chaotic because you're trying to synch everything up.

I think the best part of the trip was the last day when we took the kids to the beach. It was very brief, but it created more beautiful memories that look a little something like this:



You look so good in your new trunks. I love you so much.
