Goodbye California :-(



One last visit to the beach was a must, as Dave gave up his dream of being a surfer so Heather could have her dream of living in the mountains. :-) We had also never taken family pictures at the beach and definitely needed some!! Here are a few cute pics.  It was a beautiful day in Half Moon Bay.





Truman had the great pleasure of covering his little feet in the California sand.

 Abby had to soak in her last ocean view...
Hailey had to pick her last flower.
 We loved our last visit to San Fransisco and seeing the Golden Gate Bridge from a whole different vantage point.  These pictures were taken from Land's End Trail.
At the end of Land's End trail.

 This is our first visit to Napa Valley.  It was pretty sweet. From Geysers to Castles, we saw it all.

Abby and Hailey felt like Rapunzel in the tower of the De Amorosa castle winery.

Sitting in the river on chairs at the Big Sur River Inn.  This was something I always wanted to do before leaving CA. It was fun! Abby and Hailey loved it. It was very relaxing.I can imagine how much more relaxing it would be without kids and a good book :).




Just a bit of craziness while we were hanging out in our cabin the evening before.
One of the beaches we enjoyed going to as a family.
What is it with boys and wanting to eat sand?????? I don't remember my girls doing that.
What a fun week we had visiting some of our favorite CA spots. We already miss them!

Looks like you had fun exploring CA before you move. We are doing the same in OH. Your new place looks beautiful, we need to come visit sometime. Miss and love you!
