Finding seashells

While the fam was here visiting for the week we took advantage of the beautiful weather and spent some time walking on the beach, cliffs and watching the sunset! It was awesome, beautiful, could-not-be-any-better, for a December day.

Can We Fix it...YES WE CAN!

Connor has loved Bob the Builder, construction everything for some time now. He got an awesome tool bench for Christmas from Grandma and Grandpa Perry and his obsession is growing. Everytime my Dad comes to visit, I put him to work around the house (sorry Dad, we are very thankful for it!) and this time Connor wanted to be his helper! He cracks me up!

 THANK YOU for making the trip out, playing trains, watching cartoons, making me giggle, swimming in the freezing ocean, for all my cool new toys and for loving me!

 Mike got a hood for surfing and Tay was testing it out :D

 I think this was Taylor's favorite part.

 There were a lot of good laughs had.

 Good times.

 Snuggles.

 Relaxing.

Christmas morning was so exciting...I don't think Connor completely understood what it meant when we told him he was going to go to bed so Santa could come and bring presents. I am pretty sure he loved it, understood it and next year he is going to wake up so freakin' early I will wish he was only 2 again ;D. He loved opening presents, his and everybody elses. He also enjoyed playing with each item so opening presents lasted until 5pm :D...quite nice. Taylor was the taste tester...she enjoyed trying every piece of Christmas wrapping and tissue paper there was.
Randy and Eileen flew in mid morning so they were here to enjoy the day with us. Mom and dad spoiled us all! We had an awesome day opening presents, laughing, eating, drinking and staying cozy by the fire. It was a wonderful Christmas day!
