Summerland Weekend

Lucy, Henry and I spent the weekend with my girlfriends Jenny, Sarah, and Kristie and their kids in Summerland at an incredible beach house owned by Kristie's family. We were literally across the street from the house we lived in in college. It brought back many fun memories, most involving pizzas, studying . . . or not, and sitting for hours on a disintegrating couch on the back patio.

Lucy had a ball playing with her friends Maddie, Wil, Fletcher, and Fallon. Non playing babies present were Henry and beautiful Baby Nola. . .The view from the house was spectacular, and we did not take it for granted!

The kids loved the beach! Lucy and Fallon had a great time running in the sand, that is until Fallon got caught up by a wave and took a tumble. Sarah and I ran into the surf after her which left me drenched in the only pair of shoes I brought for the weekend. There were a few attempts at purchasing flip flops, but I mostly just spent the rest of the weekend as the good Lord intended: barefoot in pajama bottoms. (Fallon was unscathed. . . we were a bit shaken.)

We had lunch at a favorite spot the Padaro Lane Grill. It has picnic tables and a huge sand pit in the middle complete with toys. The kids loved it. Lucy made a new friend whom she approached slowly and said, "hello, little girl!"

We came home from lunch to find Kristie and Nola watching the New Orleans Saints on tv in their good luck matching jerseys.

Thank you so much for a wonderful weekend!
