More Snapshots

Immediately upon our return home, everyone wanted to head back to a "new cabin." At least we know that they all love to travel in case we ever decide to take this crew mobile living. Here's a quick snapshot at San Francisco and Monterey...

Some of our favorite pit stops were random unknown attractions like this amazing family farm!

I guess crops don't always produce, so they built an attraction on the grounds that would guarantee an entry fee!

And exit fee :D

And extra special attractions for an extra special fee...always cheering each other on to the finish line.


Boys loved all the bridges and tunnels around the Bay Area.

My Oakland-living brother had never even heard of  the Bay Area Museum. Your itinerary and attractions change with kiddos. The boys LOVED this one.  




We don't belong to gyms, we just play with our kids.

With Levi's weak hand, he needs extra assistance, so Roman had to fend for himself for a moment. 

Kid museums are the best!


A snack in Sausalito is also high on my recommendation list. 

We had already felt winter and fall, now it was time for spring and summer...

We are almost ready to start our own Full House show.

Rainforest wonders...

Real world wonders...

Our Oakland home view... the boys watched the sunset every night in Cali.

Time to go get daddy from work!

But let's putt putt first.


And eat a little Ghiradelli.

Beach and rock time...

Gorgeous place in Pacific Grove


Since we can't climb furniture at home, we got lots of climbing done out west. Probably why they slept so well.








Coffee shop stops also happen regularly on vacation. Start 'um young!


We had a ball at the Monterey Aquarium! I think we even liked it better than our huge one at home.









Time to drive down the coast.

One more photo burst coming your way soon...

Break from the blog

As March begins, often we hope for a great thaw in our land. Now Georgia certainly doesn't have any icy soil that needs warming, but our yearning for more light and fresh newness to keep us from numbing appears universal. I have written on this blog for ten years now. From singleness to newlywed to mama of four sickly, but now active, growing boys. It's been a place for me to purge, process, and pray through some of life's biggest changes and challenges. It's also helped me keep distant family and friends informed, but I've felt for some time it's come to an appropriate place for pause. I know that I have many more mountains and valleys to travel if the Lord wills it, and many more personal lessons that I'd love to share and reread to my kiddos one day (and if anyone wants to organize and compile this little landscape into a memoir, please be my guest), but I do not ever want to assume a posture of numbness as it relates to our regular routines. I re...

A little color

School has officially started for me, and my teachable teenagers will be booming into my room in two days! I can't wait to shape those minds of our future! :)   However, my summer projects are a great reminder of the joyful color and peace I had for two months. :) I found this great idea on Pinterest and thought it would add a great accent color to any room in my home! I still have to put it all together, but here's what the finished product will look like with a little more subtle turquoise: I have it all painted and ready to be assembled!  More pics upon completion! (may be quite a while though now that school is in session... hope you weren't holding your breath.) ~CC
