I’m bundled up in my favourite fall sweater today editing some photos from this summer and dreaming of the sand and not-so-warm Pacific Ocean between my toes.  This is one of the most magical places for my family and we absolutely love to visit here each year regardless of the drive and hike.  It is worth it!!  As soon as we hit the sand, the dog starts to dig and the kids sprint to the rope swing.

And they swing, and swing, and swing…Even using Jedi mind powers to push the swing out further 😉

This year, my 11 year old took my camera and said, “You swing Mom! I got this!” I.had.a.ball. and had to bow after my uncharacteristically graceful dismount!  I’ve taught her well, huh?!

Even the crazy dog wanted in on the action…I swear she thinks she’s human…

Finally, once everyone’s a little more pooped, we contemplate life, enjoy the beauty and have the waves chase us as the tide comes in and we prolong our departure…A PERFECT day indeed!

Until next time…
