The coolest father-in-law

I am truly so blessed to have such a cool, easy-going, fun father-in-law. He came in for the weekend and we had the BEST time with him. I thought we’d wear him out, but it turned out he wore US out! Ha. He is one of the kindest and loving people I know.

{took him to Panda Inn – Chinese is his favorite}

{lots of basketball, O’Doul’s and chillaxin on the couch. He even watched The Hunger Games with me:)}

{18 holes of golf late into the night. I was on cloud 9 when the owls starting hooting on hole 16. This man sure can drive a ball – and cart race!}

{Sunday we took him to our church and he said he felt like he was home again – happy for that!}

Our Sunday is winding down. Rob’s dad came into town for the weekend, and I don’t want it to end! After the long week last week, it was great to disconnect a little and visit with my father-in-law to get my mind off work. Around his Dad Rob is totally in his *element*. They have so much fun together and it’s so heartwarming. March is here and has brought cool breezes and mild afternoons. I have SO much I want to do this month – gifts, reading, projects at work, planning for visitors – it’s sort of stressing me out, which I don’t want! :(  I’m sure I’ll get through all of it. Just wish the hours in the day would slow down a bit. Would help me out a lot, ha. Well, hope you all have a great week. Here’s what brought me joy last week:

1. A quart of the 10-20 from Marianne’s. AMAZING.
2. Found a Body Pump gym in Santa Cruz. SO excited!
3. Morning coffee date with my love. This man still manages to make me giddy after all these years.
4. Lunch at Fork & Knife w/my bestie.

Seascape

How I have lived here a year and not ventured through the Seascape Beach Resort I will never know. It’s a BEAUTIFUL spot for a bike ride and beach day, and it’s right in our back yard! We fought the hills coming back but it was worth it.

{Palapas is AMAZING.}
Tacoma

I have 2 year old

{Happy birthday, Tacoma!}

 

Growing up we always had small dogs, so I was a little hesitant about getting a bigger than a lhasa-apso size dog {yet again, when is Lucy the real size of a lhasa-apso?}. But I’m so glad we did. He is the biggest sweetheart and so loving. And a great big {little} brother to Lucy.
Love you Coma baby!
