October Break!!

Although our kids aren't in real school yet, we were dying to get out of town, and were able to go with our family to California to beat the heat! It was so fun, and one of the best vacations ever!

While there, we stayed at the Gage House, which was perfect for all the kids to run and play. Tons of room inside, and lots of lush grass outside. The kids were in heaven.The best thing about this vacation was how relaxed it was. We had no plans. I was in heaven! We woke up when we wanted (when we were tired of "shshing" the babies) and ate a delicious breakfast of eggs and breakfast meats (I was in love, as I am pretty much the dog from the Beggin' Strips commercial, "Bacon!") and hashbrowns. My brother-in-law, Tim is a fantastic cook, and was gracious enough to take over meal time. I know, right?! Like I said, best vacation ever!
So, yes, playing non stop,romping in the grass, blowing the grass,
