Just your typical January day at the beach

 

 

 

 

Saturday was a glorious day at Venice beach- 66 and sunny on the sand. That's better than most July days!

Miramar Beach for MLK

 

 

 

 

The San Mateo County beaches have fickle weather. Half Moon Bay can be completely socked in, yet just 10 miles down the coast can be perfect. So it was with Miramar on MLK day. It seemed to be the only sunny beach between HMB and Pacifica, but what a glorious day it turned out to be.

Merry Christmas!

The Usual Suspects

 

Practically since birth, our kids have slept, ate, loved, fought, infected, and yes, bathed with, the Nichols Boys; Spencer and Tyler. Now that Gaby is nearly five, the coed bathing days are probably over. But here is one last photo from the innocent time!

Family Camp!

 

We beat a clear path to Memorial Park this year, camping there 4 times over the summer. Nevertheless, this is the only family photo we have to show for it!
