Saturday fun


An all star day!

A perfect day? Is there such a day? Yes, today came close to perfection! The only thing missing was Bob and the day would have been a perfect 10.
The sun was shining, the breeze was light, and we were invited to lunch and beach play at dear friends' house.
Lukas, Noah and I enjoyed a scrumptious lunch while looking out over the unusually calm Pacific Ocean, while deer pranced on the greens of a Pebble golf course. The lunch was capped off with piping hot cocoa, fresh coffee and chocolate mousse in a chocolate cup with raspberries..... it could have ended there and been a fabulous day.
Although the food was amazing, the company was even greater, these friends are becoming so dear to us. They are truly blessing us in more ways than we can ever recount.
Having enjoyed such a meal - which Noah called breakfast, lunch and dinner - we headed down to the ocean to look for crabs, anemones, urchins and other critters. We climbed up and down on the rocks, peeking into crevices, small pools of water and under rocks. The hunt was successful, we saw lots of crabs, more rock flower anemones than I could count, two large gorgeous purple star fish and even some small fish!
We would have still been there, had we not had another engagement to attend to in the late afternoon, so our visit came to a abrupt and speedy end. Since we were still satiated from our lunch, not even the waiting pizza was a consolation to Lukas and Noah who really wanted to stay and play more. Thank you for a great afternoon and for the memories we made today!
