An evening away

Instead of driving up to the snow, we drove down the coast and spent the evening at Pajaro Dunes. Dan has fond memories of this place growing up. He spent many weekends and one glorious summer down here when he was younger. Fortunately an evening here fell on our laps - unfortunately Kaitlin was feverish and spent most of her time laying down. We did manage a game of Bologna [upon Breana's request] and "Probe" [combination of hang-man and wheel-of-fortune].

Cynthia's Moving Day!

It takes the Begin clan to move a sister from a snug 2 room adorably quirky and sooo European apartment to a lovely house with a bedroom loft, a fireplace, a high ceiling and a wall of windows that must have provided an outrageous view of the storm we just had - ah, the sound of the rain while being warmed by a toasty fire! Heaven!

That's 6 adults, 4 kids, 4 vehicles, a little bit of {umph} muscle, a healthy dose of laughter and a surprise at the end...Bloody Marys and goodies from the Buttery!

While we would have helped without the Bloody Mary, once announced, it was the carrot at the end of the stick! ;)

Let it be known, we work for delicious treats!
