vacation reminiscing

Time is flying by and I can say we have had many productive days. Which is good of course, as there are SO many parts to creating a school, even if it is just in your living room! ;) However, at the end of a "productive" day I enjoy reminiscing about the summer and our little vacations we had throughout.
Again, while my parents were still here (it seems like a very long time that we last saw them) ;( We spend a day in Santa Cruz.
You know where the happy people are, on the beach with their surf boards. It was a beautiful day, of slowly wadding along the shore, watching the sea lions, going on carousal rides and of course turning into a cafe for that delicious caffeinated drink.
A funny story about the carousels is that, as you know, Mateo loves everything and anything with wheels. Something has wheels it draws his attention and fascination. When he saw the plane carousal he wanted to go on it. What we didn't understand though was that he only wanted to SIT on it and not RIDE it. So when it started he was miserable.
He didn't cry, because this little guy will pull himself together as much as he can before he cries in front of strangers. He did make that little pouting face that I know so well and just knew he was not enjoying this AT ALL!!! He kept just shaking his head when he came off, saying "I don't like it." So, despite all the fascination we are going watch all those objects with wheels for a while. Which is OK with me! ;)

Oma and Opa we think of you often!
