Pretty Spaces: Kid friendly Backyard

Hello, one of the main reasons we chose the house we bought, was because of the huge backyard. Oh the possibilities of the things we can do back there are endless. Starting with of course it replacing the fence, that should be done by next week before we move in. I'm still trying to decide what I want to do for the kids in the backyard, we were just going to buy a standard play ground slide, swings etc. but looking around at different blogs that quickly changed our minds. So for now we are still undecided, but below are some of the ideas that are floating around in our heads : )

Enjoy the rest of your Monday!

What do you mean closed??

OK i'm just going to throw it out there i'm not really one to plan ahead. As much as I would love to plan way in advance and have the car nicely packed for a outing with Jon and Juliana (oh and Jon's best bud B.) I'm more of a oh that's sounds like a great idea throw a back pack full of I don't know what in the car and we're off. But oh wait T. is it ok if B. can go to this amazzzzzing place in Berkeley called Adventure play ground he would have soooo much fun.(T. of course he can) So now we're off cruising down hwy 24, 20 minutes later we see the big SF buildings in the distance. Kids know were almost there. Jon to B."Dude there's SF ugh we should have gone there instead, oh well this Adventure place will be so much more fun."

Finally we arrive, parking lot is looking kind of empty. Kids run out of the car to the entrance and they are closed. (Crap) I flash back trying to remember the last time we came it was a Tuesday, its Wednesday why are they closed. Than I remember it was also summer vacation ohhh right. Now they are only open Saturday and Sunday. Now what do we do we look around, and the beach is right there and a play ground. So we decide we are just going to make the best of it its a nice day out we're going to explore. Jon and B. go out by the water trying to find sea shells. Juliana decides she wants to find out whats running back and fourth between the bushes. Surprise there are squirrels everywhere big ones small ones, and they come right up to you and stand up wanting food is my guess. After being there around two hours we decide to call it a day, we go out for ice cream than take B. home. Everyone still had a fun time, i'm sure the ice cream had something to do with that.

Happy Mothers day!! I hope all you mommy's get to put your feet up all day and relax :)

Favorite moments: April

Our day at the beach sooo much fun!

Our princess always dressing up in Julian's shoes or hats

Jon on his class door for teacher appreciation week he sure is awesome and fun!

We finally got our keys to our home!!

My mother in law Gloria's birthday, thanks to technology other family members got to face time and sing happy birthday (excuse our packing mess)

Blurry picture but right before Juliana bursted into tears for Julian smearing cake on his moms face.

Last week Gisele started acting very strange and not her normal playful self at all. All she wanted to do was sleep wasn't eating and started vomitting. Julian took her to the vet, they said she had an infection and we had to give here daily shots at home and give her an IV (it was quite strange having to play nurse) so she can stay hydrated. I can finally say as of three days ago she seems all better. Back to her playful self playing with Sophie and Chloe, waking us up with her sweet kisses.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your Monday!

Beach Day

This past Monday it was such a nice warm day out we decided to take Juliana and Jonathan to the beach. We were going to go to Half Moon Bay, but as we were driving on highway 1 we came across Pacifica State Beach. It looked pretty nice and it didn't seem so crowded (of course not it was a Monday afternoon) We decided to give it a try since our navigation said we still had about an hour left to get to HMB and the little ones had already started with the are we there yet every five minutes.

The water was freezing and the only one brave enough to go in was Jon. Juliana did not even want to put on her swim suit all she wanted to do was run back and fourth making sure the waves did not catch her it was the cutest thing. Julian decided to lay out and even out his tan big mistake poor guys is still all burned. I wish we would have taken our dogs that would have been fun seeing them splash around the water. It was a really nice and relaxing time I wish we did stuff like this more often.

Btw did you guys check out that building that is a Taco Bell believe it or not what a great view!

I wouldn't mind having a romantic dinner there.

Hope your enjoying your day!
