Big Basin & Capitola

We have had so much fun taking the kids on day trips now that the weather is getting nicer. Todd recently took the kids to Big Basin. It was the perfect spot to go exploring and just enjoy nature.

Our new favorite spot is Capitola beach. The kids have a great time climbing the big rocks and throwing the small ones.

Natural Bridges

We spent the day at Natural Bridges with friends. My first time taking the kids by myself and it was a lot of fun! There were plenty of people there to help (especially when the kids wanted to go in opposite directions) and all the kids loved exploring the caves and rocks there. It was a chilly day but that didn't seem to stop the kids!

Pajaro Dunes

We spent several days at my parents' condo at Pajaro Dunes right before Easter. Unfortunately the weather was really cold, windy and rainy. The kids spent some time on the beach but we ended up coming home early because it was so chilly. They love the beach and we can't wait to spend more time there this summer.

Checking out some bugs.

Dinner in Monterey.

Surprise!!
