We went to Oceanside for a week in August and it was amazing. The extended family is fabulous and we had a great location right near the beach. The older kids could run back and forth to the condo. I love going and wish I could talk Lee into going every year. Walking on the beach and playing board games and just hanging out with nowhere to be. Perfect weather. Next time I want to hit up Sea World.
We got back from the beach on a Saturday and then the kids and I left for Kamiah on Sunday. I didn't really want to go. But the kids had a great time playing with their cousins and swimming in the river. I do wish they could spend more time with their cousins.
The following week the older kids started school. Victoria seems to be doing okay but it seems to have been a slight bumpy start for Jake. They are both doing well in cross county and now Victoria is talking about doing winter cross country. Jake hasn't decided what he wants to do just yet this winter. I am encouraging him to do something this winter.
Andrew starting school has been overwhelming. He seems to enjoy being there but the mornings have been a struggle and twice I have left him with the principal and walked out the door with both of us in tears. Andrew is now attending every day and I am still not sure how I feel about it.
Lee took his annual bike trip last week and his sister came to visit while he was gone. Once again a mixed bag situation but it was nice to have another adult around. Nine days was a long time and there was so much going on with activity and two back to school nights for the kids. Plus working. We spend a small fortune on babysitting but Lee had a great time.
