Pizmo Beach

Right before I started the humongous job of packing, my sister invited the kids and I on a fabulous beach house vacation!  It was truly such a treat to spend the week with my sister, adorable niece Katie, and awesome nephews- Noah and Adam.  LOVE this family so much!  It was perfectly relaxing and all sorts of wonderful to spend time with my sis on the beach, exploring little costal towns and farmer's markets, hiking, going out to BBQ ribs, NOT cleaning or cooking-- not at all!  The kids adored every moment of this trip.  We very much hope to make it a yearly tradition, that's for sure!  It was such great timing-- as I was stressed with the looming tasks ahead of me, yet still wanted to celebrate the end of summer with the kids.  I was able to enjoy their company and spend good quality time together before I neglected them for an entire month-ha!  Loved this trip!
