Caleb's Birthday Adventures

We let the boys decide if they would rather have a party or go on a trip. And John and I always take a huge sigh of relief when they want to take a trip. We love it, and as fun as planning parties are we would rather spend genuine time as a family and make their day extra sweet.
So the Saturday before his birthday we decided to take Caleb up to the elephant seals in San Simeon. We drove up early that morning and spent a couple hours exploring and watching the crazy beach that was jammed packed with mommas, babies and gigantically territorial papa seals.



We then headed back south and stopped in a cute town called Cayucos (where john and I had just spent the weekend a few weeks prior for my bday)
We played on the pier and watched a sea otter have its breakfast. Then stopped at the local cookie and candy shop for a little treat!






Our next stop was in Arroyo Grande at their local toy store to let Caleb pick out a special toy for his birthday


He picked a light saber...Daddy was pleased


Then head down to Klondike cafe for Pizza and arcade. Its a great place where you get to throw peanut shells on the floor.
The boys loved it.

It was a beautiful day full of memories made and one very special 6 year old!


Caleb also got to share a birthday celebration at G.G.'s house with his awesome auntie CoCo!! He loves her a lot!!



The day of Caleb's actual birthday we took one of his best friends Raymond to Pump it Up for a couple hours then met up with his other best friend Micah for lunch!! It was a perfect way to celebrate Caleb, since he is not much of a party guy!



Blessed to spend six years with this amazing little man!

Tball

The boys are doing amazing with Tball. This is Jacks first year and he enjoys it as much as he feels like it, when he doesn't he sneaks off the field and comes to sit next to me on the bleachers. But Jack is definitely more in it for the show then the actual skill. He smiles, waves, dances and plays but I wouldn't have it any other way.
Caleb is doing amazing!! He got the MVP ball last night for being the "Big Slugger" He knocked a ball so hard it almost hit Daddy the pitcher. He is doing so awesome and you can tell he "gets it" this year.








Caleb: He is faster, more in tune, focused and driven. I am so so proud of our little man



This is jacks first year! He is oblivious to what the game is all about but when he is on, he is on.
