Here's what last weekend looked like for us.
We started the day out by driving past the freshly harvested sod fields. Notice the snow on the mountains in the background? After all, it is wintertime.
We arrived at the beach where Penny collected sea shells and dug in the sand with her friends. Ginger ate sand-covered Cheerios and tried to crawl face first into large puddles of water. Stephan taught Penny to jump rope with a long piece of sea weed. She never quite got the hang of it.
Then, we drove past the ripening strawberry fields to visit Stephan's parents.
Penny and Stephan picked limes and tangerines in grandma and grandpa's backyard. Penny and Ginger had a refreshing citrus snack after the harvest. Penny loves teaching me how to peel a tangerine. She's so proud of herself. I can't believe how many of those things she can eat in one sitting. Maybe 10? She loves the fresh oranges and tangerines.

Your kids are so cute! We too have been thoroughly enjoying this CA winter. When are we going to hang out?
Holy crud your kids are cute. Ditto to what Paul said. Maybe we could meet in SLO or something? Great photos too btw - I'm impressed.
Please excuse my posture in the lime tree. It was necessary to spread my weight to safely retrieve the ones that were far out.
You've gotta love CA in the winter and all year round! I love it there. Although, I'm pretty fond of TX. I love it here too. Maybe we'll never leave?!?! It's fun to see pictures of your girls. They're so cute and growing so fast!
So I guess I should consider it an honor to be the recipient of the disclaimer of your post. Just nice to see something. The girls are cute and the pictures were great. Wish we could be there!
I could just pinch Penny and her cute little grins!! I love how you can tell their personalities in the pictures. THey are so CUTE and getting old too fast!!!
Alright, when can we come visit?!
Is Penny pantless in that last picture? I guess that's yet another benefit of a southern California winter!
I love the new header for your blog! It made me laugh out loud as soon as I saw it. I'm jealous of the fresh fruit! And the girls look so cute and happy! You guys certainly know what your doing!
Totally brag it up. That's awesome. Winter here in Oregon is pretty mild, but not THAT mild.
Penny is getting so big, and ginger too! Cute, cute girls.
