It's about that time...

Orders are in and we are moving to San Diego in the fall!  Ben will be stationed at Camp Pendleton and we are looking forward to being back on the West coast.  Our house will be going on the market this week, but we've already had 2 non-listed showings.  Finding things to do when we have to be out of the house is going to an adventure.  This week, Alison went to a friends house and the boys and I went to Ralph's.  Ralph's sums up what it's been like living on Long Island...we are saying the same words, but they mean completely different things. I ordered a chocolate sundae, thinking it would be a safe order.  In my head, I should have received this:

Instead, I received this monstrosity.  The picture does not do it justice but it felt like a half gallon of ice cream with a million layers of chocolate.

It was so entertaining that I got an Eli smile!

Colin ordered a "twister", which turned out to be layers of ice cream and Italian ice, which equaled a GIANT mess.

Then we went on a little stroll down by the water.

The picture looks peaceful, but you can't hear Maya losing her mind because she want so badly to get on that beach and chase all the things.  But dogs aren't allowed on the beach and she was going crazy.  She even attempted to jump through the fence!

The boys played and even with a crazy dog, it was a beautiful evening.
