This time it is just a couple miles down the hill. We're upgrading to a three bedroom that is nicely situated on the bluff overlooking Dana Point Harbor amongst multi-million dollar homes (I'm not sure how we snuck in there). Soon we will have more space so that our lovely visitors can actually have a little room of their own. Of course it will be an office/playroom/guest room. We're hoping it might entice a couple of grandparents to get out here to visit a little more often. Now to tempt a few more of you with cabin fever...It's almost 80 degrees here for crying out loud!
Prior to our present packing project, my two sons and I took a plane to Montana to visit Russ and Julie and get a root canal. The root canal went rather smoothly thanks to Russ and his fine motor skills, but the plane ride with the boys was hectic. Thanks goodness it was a direct flight.
Uncle Russ helped Sam and Evan spin their first bowl. They enjoyed using the tools.
We took Sukha on a walk to the creek and Sam insisted on staying off the trail and running in the woods like Sukha. He would even roll around on his back in the snow just as Sukha did. Pretty cute until it was time to walk back and Sam was all out of energy and wanted me to carry him. Once we got back to their house, Sam went out back to play with the ducks when he was surprised by a couple of deer looking for free food. After I went in to check on Evan, I heard Sam yelling for me and found him hiding in the chicken coop. Not a bad idea considering the deer was a lot bigger than he is.
After returning from Montana, Jim and Sue took an impromptu drive out to see their prized grandsons and help relieve an already tired mama whose husband was about to go into deadline mode @ work. Below the boys still love the blow up bed. Evan thinks he's jumping but his feet haven't quite learned to push off yet. Instead his eyebrows lift as if he really was jumping.
So long Alcazar Street and thanks for the memories....
Here we come Santa Clara!
