GOOD. RANDOM. FUN. {WEEK 25}

 Last Monday, Brian asked Allie to marry him!
just after they got their tent set-up, they wandered off on a walk to the beach
...when they came back to camp, they were both beaming!!
We're THRILLED... no wedding date or location yet!

 ...during our evening walk, we spotted DOLPHINS
jumping in & out of the water & riding the waves!
...another random shot of Lydia... enjoying the beach!

...always creative, ALLIE is an expert at "drip castles
(& took a pic to post on Instagram)
...energized by the waves, slight breeze & the fog rolling in...
Lydia played until it was time for making so'mores!

SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY 6.22.14

Lydia spent her first week of summer with us.
It takes a day or two for her to leave the "fast-paced" daily routine of being home.
We got the "only available" campsite in North Beach-Pismo Beach campground... 
it's our "go-to-campground" 8 minutes from our house...
it's a treasured place for many reasons!
LYDIA has the freedom to ride her bike around the campground... unaccompanied!

Another benefit of camping... fresh air, walks on the beach & mindless relaxation!

... also, you can get a "dose of nature"

... Lola & Allie have wide open spaces...

... and you have more opportunities to nap!

 
next week's words:
PINK, WHEELS, FRIEND(S), EMOTION & SWEET

a sampling of the GOOD food at AN AFTERNOON OF EPICUREAN DELIGHTS... we joined 600+ people for an afternoon of wine, food, music & easily, the most majestic location on the cliffs of Shell Beach, the CHAPMAN ESTATE.

a RANDOM ceramic bird - watching over the gazebo

the event featured two areas for listening to some FUN 80's music.
The band, "Booker Tease" played by the swimming pool.
The windmill is the landmark symbol for the estate.

the weather was incredibly beauty!
slight breeze!
tasty wine & food samplings!

The first Sunday in June, is the date for the annual fundraiser for our local Community Action Partnership of San Luis Obispo. 
We're rounding up friends to join us next year!!!

SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY 6.1.14

MEMORIAL DAY = STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL
Since 1983, the city of Arroyo Grande has hosted a
FESTIVAL on Memorial Day... 
tasty, delightful, juicy, brilliantly red, sweet orbs of goodness!

 a strawberry kabob drizzled with milk chocolate & white chocolate! ummm MAKE it MINE!

the Strawberry Festival also provides a chance for visitors
to see some of the "historical artifacts" from our community.
A QUIRKY apple peeler!

Lola came for a visit.
I love her WHAT WERE YOU THINKING pose, when I disturbed her morning nap!

the red-wing blackbirds "call" to us each morning.
Lola & I took a walk... for "her" MORNING RITUAL... to explore & experience the new smells.

Cute suitcase... a Mother's Day gift from Brian!
WHAT'S IN the suitcase?
It's a 1000 piece puzzle of San Francisco!
awesome-ness!

Thanks Brian, Allie & Lola for sharing the Memorial Day Weekend with us!
