A little breath of fresh air


Take me to the coast, let me breathe some salty, fresh air! That is just what we did this weekend! Ahhhhhh, how refreshing and rejuvenating.

Sisters holding hands...............running through the forest.

Wearing homemade summer dresses made by mommy. We didn't even care that the fog was in and it was a bit chilly. Just to breathe the soft, salty, fresh air and feel refreshed from the hot summer heat. How refreshing.

There it is.....the California coast. One of our favorite tide pool beaches, you can see below the rocky cliffs.

Here is our family tree photo! Peek-aboo..........littlest sissy is tugging at her dress, saying: "Lets get this photo mess over and done with mom!" "I want to go play on the beach!"

Cheese!!! ~ We love our pretty new dresses, mommy!

Oh, I hope you have frames ready for these pictures! What an idyllic scene. And the dresses are going to be heirlooms, I'm sure.
