Just a few more days to go... we spent the weekend half in boxes and suitcases, running around town, cleaning, doing laundry, taking pictures, seeing friends and watching the Bag Piper play into the sunset at Spanish Bay. Admittedly, I have hit the moving wall and I am officially ready for the rest of our stuff to get packed and shipped out early this week. It is always bittersweet to leave, but I know the next adventure it waiting for us to get started.
In the meantime, of course we have been doing a lot of reflecting on our time in Monterey and all we have done in the past two years. Kev's and I started thinking about everywhere we have been and how much the boys have grown. It makes me grateful that I documented so much of this unique place along the way.
Here is just a sampling (each link will bring you back to the specific blog post) of what we've done in the past two years:

Wow, you've sure had the chance to visit some amazing places over these last two years... I'm eager to look at the photos.
One thing you can never say is that you regret not getting a chance to explore sunny California. It sounds like you spent every day making the most of your limited time here. What wonderful posts to be able to look back on later...
You and your family are so beautiful!
