Julie's family has been going to Pismo beach all of her life. It is such a special place to her and the family. In March of 2003 Julie's Papa passed away, and the family spread his ashes in Pismo beach up on the cliffs. Ever since then it has become even more of a special place. A few weekends ago the whole family gathered there in remembrance of Papa. We had a great time. It was Janna's first time at the beach, and in the sand. She loved it. The time at the pool was great, another first for Janna. She loves the water.We also spent the evening playing games, this was an activity Papa also loved. Julie has many memories playing games with her papa. It is great to take a break from our busy schedules and just remember him. He played such a huge role in Julie's life, and he has truly left a legacy behind. Although our kids were never able to meet him in person, we hope to teach them values that he cherished, and family traditions he set. We plan to keep going with the kids, and we want to pass the Pismo tradition on to them.

Every year we go to this cool restaurant called McKlintocks. They do this thing where they poor water from a pitcher with a blindfold on into a glass on your head. J was up for it.
