Graciously, my cousins Eric and Cherie invited us to stay at their beach house in the Channel Islands of Oxnard, California for the week. I don’t know who was more excited. Was it my husband who works two jobs to provide for us? Was it Baylee and Nathan who just completed a wonderful year of school? Was it Owen who has never seen the ocean? Or was it me, a worn out Mommy who’s kept the family organized and everywhere they’ve needed to be? It’s probably impossible to know the answer but nonetheless, we all needed and wanted to get away TOGETHER so badly!
This trip is full of fantastic fun and adventure so I’ll break it up into chapters. So, for today, here is chapter one...we’ve made it and the place is better than expected!
The photos below are of the kids’ first site of the beach. Baylee, Nathan, and Owen didn’t care that they were fully clothed; they had to run into the water. Then afterwards, we went for a pizza dinner with my cousins' by boat! Pirate Owen was at the wheel with Eric showing him the ropes. We rode through the Channel canals and docked it at a shopping center where the restaurant was located. The kids, no scratch that…we all thought that was totally cool!)
