Life's a Beach

We weren't planning on going to the beach this year. Thought we'd do a stay-cation in late August, go to Sesame Place and an Eagles game, but mostly just hang out by the pool and enjoy Kyle being home. Then Mammau's cousin and her husband offered us their beach condo for a week and we couldn't resist (Thanks Jack and Nancy!) We had a great and relaxing time. Liam loved the ocean this year and Keira liked the sand. We had a bit of cool weather and a little rain but Uncle Shawn got to join us for a few days and brought the sunshine with him, and we managed to keep Kyle and Keira from getting burned!

Belated

Kyle and I don't really celebrate holidays. Well, we do, the main traditional ones like Christmas, Easter and Thanksgiving. We like getting together with family and there's always fun stuff for the kids (we used to be the kids, now we have the kids.) And of course we love Halloween, because the devil always has the most fun. But all the other odd random ones, not so much. We're not big gift givers, or card buyers. We are happy to be together and try to show it and say it every day. So here is my little post for my hubby to let him know that I was thinking about him as Father's Day came and went. I feel so lucky to be married to my best friend and to have him as the father of my little ones. Everything he does is for them or our family. He is so excited to spend time with them and take them places and play and swim and read and wrestle. I love you Kyle, and Liam and Keira love you like everyday is Father's Day.

Happy Kids

"Hi Mom! Look at me. I know I fall and bump my head sometimes and then I cry, but I really like this climbing stuff, so don't ask me to give it up, okay?" Don't you wish swinging was still this fun?
