Today was Alan’s birthday. We played at home this morning. We tried to get the kiddos to play by themselves so we could sit and relax and read the paper. Justin and I played Memory; so much fun to play with him-he is really good. Nikki wanted to help dad fix some dry wall. In the laundry room the door knob indented the wall. It has been like this since we moved in but dad decided to finally fix it. Nikki was really into helping dad fix the hole. The kids and I left to go to grandma/pa’s to celebrate Alan’s birthday. Nicole didn’t want daddy to fix the wall without her. We got to play with Tierney a bit and headed out for Chinese for lunch.
The kids helped Uncle Alan blow out his candle. The ice cream cake was the best part for the kids. They loved seeing their blue tongues from the frosting. We headed back to grandma/pa’s for a bit. The kids watched George then we had to head out. We met dad at Aliso Creek Beach. We all played in the sand for a bit, buried Nicole, threw sticks in the ocean, etc.
I met my photography group at the beach and took a ton of pics at the beach. Some of them came out really cute. These are unedited
We had a great time at the beach, of course we always say we should do it more often. The kids got wet and it started to get cold. Justin went in daddy car and Nicole came with me. We met at The Hat for dinner. Justin was pretty tired tonight. We read books and the kiddos went to bed. Justin fell asleep so fast. I think he just likes cuddling next to a warm body. Nicole wanted us to tell her the Chipmunk and Chipette story, ugh. She also started asking us about death, how does it feel to be dead? She is such a curious kid.
