A little taste of Oceanside
Eric downloaded all of our vacation pictures onto his laptop...and then left it at work. So, for now, I thought I'd share a couple of videos of the kids having fun on the beach.
Allie fell in love with Bodyboarding during this beach trip. She spent hours and hours in the water having fun. Allie was always the first one in the water and the very last one out. She couldn't get enough!
Landon hated the ocean and the pool! He would cry every single time we took him to the very edge of the water and put his toes in. We're going to work on that before our next trip to the beach. What he did enjoy was playing in the sand and chasing the seagulls all over the beach with his cousins Carly and Joe.
We had a really fun trip and the weather couldn't have been better. I love spending time vacationing with family more than anything else in the world. We are already trying to figure out how soon we can get back to sunny Southern California where the weather and the gas prices are a whole lot nicer right now.

"Car"
Since he is terrible about performing on cue for an audience, I decided that I would try and catch Landon on video saying a few of the words he knows. The only one I could get him to say was "car". He also says: Mama, go, dogs, eye, hair, ear, uh-oh, no, cow, hi, more, and Dad.
Things that make you go hmmm...
So last night Eric took his Young Men on a hike. He has a favorite trail near our home that he frequents. After hiking for a while the boys and their leaders stopped to rest. While they were sitting there enjoying the view, a conversation happened that went a little something like this:
YM Leader: Eric, do you come here very often?
Eric: Yeah, pretty frequently.
YM Leader: So...would this happen to be your electric razor?
Eric: (dazed and totally confused) Yes! Where did you find that?
YM Leader: Over there on the ground.
Eric: I've been looking for this for 2 months!
That's right. Last night while hiking on the mountainside Eric found the electric razor he has been searching for for the past 2 months! The case was a little sun bleached but other than that it was in perfect working condition. Just don't ask how it got there.
