Our present life

We are currently living in Manteca, California away from the cold winters of Chicago. We moved to California almost 4 years ago and started this blog in an attempt to keep in touch with our family and friends in Chicago or elsewhere. We miss everyone from the midwest but we love those who have become part of our life in California. Kevin is a teacher at Ripon Christian High. He also coaches girls volleyball and soccer and stays busy playing the sports he loves as well. Janey is a nurse 2 days a week and a mom the rest. She works at DMC on the pediatrics floor. Mason (5) and Talen (2) are growing daily and loving life! Enjoy our blog and follow us if you like!

Our labor day

 On Wednesday Mimi and Papa flew in from Chicago and stayed with us for a week.  We took a drive to Half Moon Bay/Pacifica on monday and had a great day at the beach. We stopped at a great park in Pacifica and let the boys play around there.
 

 Then we headed towards Half Moon Bay and played at the beach.  It was a little cold, but the weather didn't phase the boys at all. Here they are building a sand castle.
 Then we discovered some tide pools at Fitzdgterald Marine reserve. It was such a fun place for the boys to walk around on the rocks and explore the crabs, sea anemone, and other little creatures. We also got to see some sea lions laying on the beach not far away.



Papa's little shadow and biggest fan:) Thanks for mowing the lawn for us Papa and for fixing the lawn mower while you were here! Mimi and Papa also took the boys to Lake Tahoe for 2 nights while they were here. The boys had a blast, while Kevin and I were able to have some time alone. It was a great trade-off! We miss you already Mimi & Papa, your time here always goes by too fast.
