Gualala


Only two more days until we leave for Gualala. Livy has been counting down since day 14. Every morning she tells us how many days until Gualala!  We are all so excited. Sometimes it makes me miss my Grandma Smith a lot when I think about it. But it also makes me so happy she kept such an amazing tradition. And so grateful for my mom to keep it up! It is a lot of work, but we LOVE it!
(As i was writing this Livy came out of bed and put her fingers right in my face and said, "Only 2 more days! I can't wait")

 This was the last Gualala with my Grandpa Smith 2 years ago. It was because of his abolone diving that we started going. Thanks Grandpa

Pillowcases


For enrichment night, the Relief Society was making pillowcases to donate and the activity day girls were invited to come with their moms to learn how to sew. Well Brooke is a few months away from being old enough, so instead of going to sew at the church, i told Brooke I would teach her how to sew. It was a great night. Brooke loved it and it was such a great Mother/daughter activity for us. I am so glad i used the evening to spend quality time with Brooke instead of going to enrichment night.
