Last weekend was possibly the most blissful weather in recent memory. Our “Valentime’s Day” was perfect. We awoke to a breakfast table piled with little boxes of love and homemade cards. We had a great morning at swimming lessons and then a tasty lunch in Santa Cruz at burger. And then we headed up the coast to our favorite tide pool beach where we also encountered two of our very own elephant seals. They also clearly agreed they had never encountered a more perfect day.
The boys’ favorite part of the day may have been the chocolate loot at breakfast, or snack time at Kelly’s Bakery, but I think it was exploring the beach. Nate talks me into coming down to the water’s edge to play a game his Dad has made up:
“Mommy, Mommy. Say la-dee-dee-da. La-dee-dee-da. And then when the waves come, ‘Run for your lives!!! Run for your lives!!!'” Followed by uproarious giggles and running.
