A Day at the Beach

We have now been living in Morgan Hill for almost a month. We have been busy getting all of our stuff organized and our house put together but we have also had some time to get out and do some fun things in our new home town. A few weeks ago we all hopped in the car and drove to the coast. We drove to a little town named Carmel and it was so much fun. They have a really nice beach there as well as lots of cute little shops and a wonderful sea food restaurant that we found. Kaylee was so excited to go to the beach and she had a blast while we were there!

Kaylee's favorite part about the beach was running from the waves. She would walk into the water with Dan and then when the tide started to come in she would scream and start running so the water didn't catch her! She was a little scared of the rushing water at first but after a few tries she thought that the water chasing her was just about the coolest thing in the world!


We all had such a fun time in Carmel. It was really awesome to be able to spend some time with just our little family and to start creating some wonderful memories in our new home. It again reminds us how blessed we are and how grateful we are for our little Kaylee. She has such a cute little personality and she brings so much joy to everyone around her. Everyone probably thinks they have the most wonderful children in the world but Kaylee is truly a very special little spirit. How did we get so lucky?



Makenna slept through most of the trip but I am sure she was enjoying being snuggled up to her daddy in the sling!

On our last venture into the water Kaylee and mommy saw a big wave coming in. We didn't really notice how big it was until it was a little too late! We started running towards the beach but it was to late and it pushed into us and knocked us into the water. Kaylee got soaked! She was a little upset at first but then she thought it was funny and talked about it all the way home. She now asks everyday when we can go back to the beach!
