Music Monday will be going on hiatus for the summer so I can bring you our weekly recaps. I will be highlighting all the fun pictures and activities we have planned for this summer. Eight weeks of fun!
Monday
We road-tripped to the beach for the day. We usually go to Half Moon Bay about 45 minutes west across the mountains. The twins really enjoy the drive as it twists and turns through the mountains. Once we got to the coast, we ate at a small hole-in-the-wall taqueria that was really really good (and pretty cheap). I will have to remember for next time. We then drove a few more blocks to the actual beach. It took Arthur about 30 seconds to try and eat the sand. One handful, one nasty look and gagging, and he was finished trying to eat the sand. We ended up spending almost 4 hours hanging out on the beach. The twins ran through the waves. Arthur and I preferred to hang out on the sand. The Pacific Ocean is just way too cold by us to actually swim. After packing up we stopped at Baskin Robbins for our afternoon snack. Yum yum!
Tuesday
Tuesday was our usual errands day. Target, grocery, and library visit. Nothing too exciting, but all weekly events.
Wednesday
Arthur did not sleep well so our morning was shot. We did make it to Rengstorff Park for blanket babies in the afternoon.
Thursday
We ventured out to Shoreline for the big mom’s group walk. I only subjected the twins to the short trail. After walking we grabbed lunch at the cafe there. In the afternoon we walked over to get Tutti Frutti and visit the bookstore.
Friday
Fourth of July! We celebrated by going to a fellow mom’s mom’s house (yep, that’s right) for a pool party and BBQ. The twins spent the entire time swimming. The babies played and even swam a bit. The adults made sure no one drowned and enjoyed talking about things other than sleep and poo. Overall, we had a very lovely time.
Saturday
The twins spent the day hanging out at home. Arthur and I went to the co-op playdate at Rengstroff for a few hours in the afternoon.
Sunday
We had another quiet day at the house. The twins hit the pool. I hit the coffeehouse for a few hours to work on my blog. It was a nice relaxing day before the start of what’s bound to be a crazy week.
