(I know I'm on break, but as promised, I'm keeping up with my "hello monday" practice)
thanks to caden for taking this lovely shot of sunset: view from the beach house
hello drive. the (little less than) 1,000 kilometres door-to-door is worth every minute in the truck. yes, every minute. with kids. my four teenagers plus one! with their choices in music. with pit stops. with poking and stretching and annoying. every minute.
hello beach house. this place is bliss.
hello ocean. just the sound alone is enough to bring me back year after year. the breeze, air, shells and pebbles are bonus! oh, and the critters, too.
hello son. mid-holiday cole made his appearance. he's been in british columbia for almost a month. in a day he went from ocean to ocean and joined up with us. so, so good to see him! he's been greatly missed.
hello grands. so nice to spend some casual time with my family and have the kids get to know their grandparents better. out for dinner. conversations. just hanging out.
hello lobster. my mission this year? to eat lobster at least once every single day of our holiday at the shore. guess what? done!
hello test. well, of sorts. claire brought her boyfriend along for the holiday. a big step, i know! he's a lovely boy and he managed very well as i was sure he would.
hello dolly. the cape playhouse is a favourite and this year we enjoyed this grand old musical. well, at least, i did!
hello mail orders. it happens less and less, but every once in a while there are items that can only be procured in the states. i had a few things shipped to the house and i'm so happy to have found them sitting at the post office!
hello monday. you are my most favourite day of the week. i love that you provide me with 52 fresh starts every year.
what are you saying hello to on this brand new monday?
