october 7

we had some shopping and errand running to do today, and this is how the kids felt about it... lol!

kevin's home, and we had a fantastic day at UC's football homecoming game. we spent the entire day on campus starting with the parade, lunch at the sigma chi house, fun in the family tailgating area and finally at the game. the kids had a ball running all over campus and playing around. it was a beautiful day spent together as a family.

one of the things i'm going to miss the most about our current house is my home office tucked away off the kitchen. it's such a great space, and the color of the office makes me happy every time i look at it. drawing on my chalkboard makes the kids happy, too.

i left california very early this morning and made it home in time to put the kids to bed! i had a great time with kevin in california as well as a very productive few days getting everything selected for the house, but it sure does feel good to be home with my babies. they had lots of stories to tell me about their special time with gigi and bar bar, and, thankfully, everyone survived :)

it has been so exciting to be out here focusing on our new home and everything that awaits us here! the foundation on the house has been poured, and it's easier to imagine it now. it's a bit hard to believe that i'm going to leave tomorrow, and i won't be back to california until the house is complete!

i've been driving all over carlsbad running errands for the past 2 days - checking out preschools, grocery stores/prices, tile/granite/cabinets/carpet/wood floors - but i managed to squeeze in a quick trip to the beach in encinitas this afternoon. couldn't come to california without putting my toes in the sand :)

keeping up my workouts while on "vacation" makes me feel good, and is a great way to start the day! the mornings here in california are beautiful. kevin and i awakened early to workout together and have breakfast before i drove him to work and started the process of making selections for the new house. it's going to be an exciting day :)
