On Wednesday afternoon, my younger brother, Uncle Bummy and his girlfriend, Kathleen flew in from DC for a few days. You might remember that his real name is Andy, but when C was a toddler, he heard another brother of mine call Andy a 'bum', repeated it and now has no idea that he has a real name.
My boys love their uncles so much ( C tells me all the time that he can't wait to see them in 'Ba-ginia all the time) and had been anxiously awaiting Bummy and Kathleen's trip for months. On Wednesday, we took it pretty easy in the afternoon, went to C's tball practice and then down to Carmel to catch the sunset.
Meanest thing we can do to Bennett: take him away from the ocean.
On Thursday, we had the warmest day we have ever experienced in our two years in Monterey. It was so nice. The boys were sure Uncle Bummy would really like going to the Dennis Park (a playground too big for me to take them by myself) so we spent some time there in the morning.
Then we went for a walk to see the seals and out to lunch. It was back home for naps, and my Bummy and Kathleen were awesome and stayed home while I sneaked out for a massage (glorious). After naps, we were off to the beach for the rest of the afternoon, couldn't spend a warm day like that indoors!
Sadly, I was too busy soaking up the sun to take more pictures, but it was a perfect afternoon.
Today, the men are off fishing and Kathleen and I are going to run around town a bit, then tomorrow head down to Pfieffer Beach in Big Sur before they leave tomorrow night. We are so grateful they were able to make the trip before we move!
Have a great weekend!

What beautiful pictures. I hope you enjoyed your final day with your brother. It looks like you all had a wonderful visit.
I love the picture of your son crying, just classic. Big Sur is my favorite place to camp. My dad use to take me there in the summers. I love it there so much.
I too love having visitors. It's so great to have people we love to distract us, from time to time, away from the more ordinary things we do day after day. Take care,
Shauna
