Activities...

Did some kayaking with a friend in Morro Bay on Saturday.  Not so sunny day but really enjoyed it.  Today my bike basket runneth over!  Hauled all this back home on my bicycle.  Beautiful sunny day. 

This is the first post I have done from my phone.   We'll see how it turns out.

I have actually completed another sewing project. Still at the difficulty level of hemming pants but I'm happy with it. I took this....




To this...



...and now that I look at the picture I realize that you can't really tell what's been done. I took the lower ruffles from the skirt and sewed them onto the bottom of the shirt to make a dress. It actually turned out to be more like a long shirt. The picture looks like she's just wearing the before pieces together. Take my word for it.

Here are a few more pics from our day at the beach. We let Naomi play in the sand. We tried to keep her from eating sand. We played in the sand too.... we buried our daughter in the sand.



Only up to her armpits of course. We're not crazy!



She liked it.



We all got a little sandy so Jess took Naomi down to the water for a rinse and a stroll.







We finished our time at the beach with a little cuddle time.



Thank you Jessica for taking wonderful pictures with your nifty camera.

I just have to share this. Most of the time people say that Naomi looks just like me.... and usually she does. This picture today really captured the Jess side of her. They both have the best squinty face. There are more wonderful pictures from today but I will have to add them on another time. I've got to do bath time for Naomi now.

Naomi is 11 months old now. It's crazy that she is going to be one year old in less than a month. She is on her way to walking and really getting a funny personality. She cracks me up all the time.
This pic was taken while hanging at Hazzard Canyon out in Montana de Oro. We've got a cool beach tent to hang out in. Spent some time playing in the tide pools. Naomi likes the water and is working on her tan. Haven't used it as much as I thought we would.
Jess' cousin Jessica is here for a visit and we had a great time. We've got the guest room ready for visitors - hint, hint! The weather is getting better and better. You should come visit.
Yes, I mean you!
