Paradoxical Olympics

Watching the Olympics is, at the same time, incredibly inspiring to go work out and to eat oreos.

Love watching the Olympics...Still wish I could watch entire events that I want to.

We couldn't agree on a movie so we went to the beach

Gerda's daughter Carol was here for the week of Gerda's 91st birthday, which meant it was our week to catch-up on over due date nights! Friday night we were trying to find a movie to go see, Quintin didn't want to see Magic Mike, so we decided to go the the beach! We stayed for the first part of Gerda's birthday party then left Saturday afternoon.
    
 We arrived in Oceanside, CA just as the sun was setting on Saturday.
Quintin was anxious to get his toesies in the sand.

 We ate dinner at Ruby's, a little diner on the pier.

 Fish & chips yummm.

 Yay together time!  We got the the beach early Sunday morning and relaxed. ahhh

 Playing in the ocean!  Quintin washed off all his sunscreen!

 We rented a pedal boat and pedaled around the harbor.  We saw pelicans and crabs and even a sea witch  lion!

                                               This picture is for Maddy Ann.

       

           At about 2pm we were both a bit sunburnt and tired, but we didn't want the trip to just be over, so we took a detour that actually added a lot of time to our trip, to Joshua Tree National Park.  

 It was a very pretty drive, lots of Joshua trees and they all look so different, but we didn't get home till really late! Can't quite decide if it was worth it.

It's Hot!

Molly and I snuck away to Oceanside, CA this last weekend (post coming soon).

We returned to Las Vegas late last night.  We woke up, Molly went to work and the Air Conditioner started to blow hot air.  I didn't notice for a while, because I'm almost ALWAYS hot in this house.

86 degrees in the house and rising.  :(

Very much wishing to be back in Oceanside, and for a water park in Las Vegas.
