Summer is HERE!!

The Last Day of School...
It has finally arrived!
I couldn't be happier to have my kids home with me and to be a little "less busy".

Our blackberries from our garden!

The first official day of summer we rode our bikes to the donut shop!

Then, later that week, Wednesday, June 6th my good friend Tiana took us to Pismo Beach.

We stayed in the Lighthouse Inn and Suites with Tiana and Zoe and Aubrey and her kids and we had the best time.

Other than insane winds the kids had a blast!

It was the perfect was to kick-off our summer vacation!

 We finally gave up on the beach and went back to our hotel to let the kids swim.

The proceeded to have an epic bellyflop contest.

 The Hotel was awesome!

We went to a DELICIOUS Pizza place for dinner named "Giuseppe’s Express" - it was AMAZING!

SO MUCH CHEESE!

Allie brought her friend Sophie with her...

On Thursday, June 7th we woke up and went on a hike.

We found this cave that was really cool...albeit a little nerve racking when the kids got a little too close to the edge.

We found this fun beach (which turned out to be a nude beach) thankfully there were no other people around - so the children (and us) were not traumatized!

Allie refused to take a "selfie" with me...she's rude!

CJ loved catching little crabs

After the hike we went back to our hotel and packed up.

Then picked up some lunch before heading to Avila for the day.

We got sandwiches from this place.

It was incredible.

They are famous for their Gourmet Potato chips - with chocolate or whatever type of toppings you would like!

Then spent the rest of the day at Avila Beach.

It was beautiful and relaxing...much different than our wind whipped day previous!

Summer is off to a GREAT start!
