Scott and I decided at the last minute to get away for the weekend and celebrate Madeline's birthday and the 4th of July. We went to Oxnard, not too far from home and yet such awesome weather. I cant' believe that in all the years we have lived in California we have not stayed up there before it was a lot of fun. We enjoyed the beach, went on bike rides, ate good food and watched some beautiful fireworks! I love being with my family! There is nothing better than time together. I am grateful that Scott and I are able to spend so much time with our kids becauseI know we will be more spread out soon so time together is very valuable. Thanks for a great weekend!!!

After presents we rented bikes and went on a wonderful bike ride along the beach! Scott and I were in a little cart, Vanessa was on a tricycle, and everyone else had a bike! It was tons of fun!
Off we go!!!
