California

Remember that really long period of time time when we were renovating our house and I couldn't stand being in it for one more minute? I certainly do. I also remember my husband directing me to escape to California for a few days in order to reinvigorate myself and my children. I married such a wise man. 

Rebekah was not a fan of the constant noise the van made or the changes in pressure due to fluctuations in elevation. Luckily, she hs learned how to plug her ears. How self reliant. 

We played outside alot because of the lovely California weather. Caleb was ecstatic. 

This is the most beautiful girl in the world!

A serious trampoline acrobat. 

And his older brother. 

Look at that boy go!

On his way to an amazing flip.....

Grandma Bev was only too happy to applaud their efforts.

And give them some snuggles. 

David carried all his blankets outside to create a comfy bed on a lawn chair. He seemed pretty content until he wiggled too much and sent the blankets falling to the ground. Fix it again, Tony..... 

Happy faces and sweet hugs.

This boy is so, so handsome despite the dirt he collected on his face fom playing so hard. 

And so very adventerous. 

That's a smile for Carly who is always so nice to give Rebekah a push when she asks for it. 

The Berg boys think that no California visit is complete without a cookout. Grandpa Todd is always happy to deliver.  

I can't quite remember why he was sad but it didn't last long and it's such a cute sad face. 

My darling little dirt collector. 

Bless Heavenly Father for sending me such a daring little pink thing.
