Mommy's Birthday Weekend

For Sara's birthday we went and spent the weekend at Dillon Beach, north of San Francisco. The little man was very well behaved for the whole time, though he developed a ravenous nocturnal appetite. But when you get to sleep in at such a beautiful beach house it makes up for it. The house was Sara's uncle's mother's house and we were really thankful to get to stay. Many thanks, Miye!

We forgot our camera (bad parents! bad parents!), so all we have to document the weekend is this mobile phone pic. But it was an action-packed weekend! We went to an old lighthouse in Point Reyes, saw two male elephant seals fight for territory, ate some great food including a spicy piece of chocolate lava, hiked in redwoods at Armstrong State Park, took long walks on the beach, and indulged in crazy sticky buns. Good times were had by all.

Happy birthday, mommy!
