Glad to be home....well mostly

I am glad to be home...but

I miss the beach

I miss only having certain things there

so it was REALLY easy to keep tidy

there was only so many toys

clothes

and things

Home

there is a lot of stuff

But not near as much

as before my purging started

I love keeping it simple

I did go through over 80 magazines

worked two puzzles

spent a ton of one on one time with each of my kids

pier time reading with Sam

Walks on the beach with Bo

running to chase balls with Baylen

it was awesome

I shared many beach drinks with daddy

in between sword fights with seed weed

throwing frisbees

and looking at sandcastles

I got my fill of seafood

but am sure I will want it again tomorrow

I enjoyed sleeping in a bit

drinking coffee on the deck

going to a playground for hours

walking

bike riding

running with Piper on the beach

Riding everywhere in a golf cart

or on a bike

eating lots of yummy food

that I don't normally eat

drinking a lot of sugary drinks

I don't normally drink

watching a movie cuddled on the couch

every

single night

going to the grocery store

with the entire family is fun in itself

just doing nothing

but enjoying every minute of not having to be anywhere but

on the beach

on a bike

on a playground

on a couch

watching a movie

playing a game

that was nice

I have to say

I do still believe that it is a trip with kids

a vacation without

but it still was a vacation

a vacation from crazy

I got to just be with my kids and husband

with not outside distractions

they still did not allow me to have down time

but that was okay

I never really want to be distracted from them

it is just the other stuff that gets in the way

coming back tonight with a new focus

fresh feeling

ready for a week of focusing on the good stuff

I look forward to blogging

getting back on schedule

and looking forward to a big birthday week

when my first boy

turns six

can't believe it

I have to say

I am missing my mother in law tonight

it just hits me sometimes

really hits me

can't believe she is gone

I feel like I lived the last part of last year

in a daze...

I love

Coming home...from my other home

laundry being done, even if it is just for a minute

memories, when you can go right back anywhere at anytime

family

sundresses

an empty fridge..so I can go have a fresh start

a monday full of nothing to look forward to

an almost two year old that is so busy I can't get enough watching him
