in the happy place

thank you for the messages of concern regarding the fires here, we are not close and rain is predicted for tomorrow, crossing fingers.

the fog moved off and the sun came out, making a timely appearance for one little girl's birthday party at the beach!  we celebrated sadie's day with sand and surf, she was, as my daughter said, 'in her happy place'
oh and how i was too = kids and babies!

in the rainbow sweater, the birthday girl

 i love this, kim and mike are kayaking in to shore while sadie is catching a wave at right!

instagramy photos, getting lots of baby love

nurturing fibres kal knitting was brought but mostly sat without me

happy birthday my precious grandgirl, i hope your day was one you'll always remember

last week...

much loved friend anushka, came to town. gorgeous baby indy came too (this has been an excellent baby week!) we had lattes and acai bowls at lucky llama cafe, then walked to the tomol park at the beach, where indy made discoveries of the brave baby kind. i loved that we had a chance to catch up, indy didn't even seem to mind our (long) knitting discussions before we said goodbye. :)

(found in this town where i live, the 'world's safest beach' and the world's largest torrey pine!)
