DUNE DAYS

 The Dune days are at the top of the list for summer fun as they are now a tradition with the Benson family. 

 Paddling or bike riding ALL DAY LONG. 
 My family does it right. Super fun toys, orders a taco cart, loads of sweets, fun drinks and good people.




Sweet to see our kids on this tree as I remember climbing them with my brother.
Until next August!

RIVER CHICKS

Its not very often a family of 3 asks a family of 6 to come stay at there 2 bedroom home but they took a chance on us!
 Five days of sunshine and rest, thank you Heidi and Tim! 

 Weather was hot and we were in suits, kinda my dream since the day I put a sweatshirt on.

 Major love for these girls

Yum food, great neighbors, good convo's, lots of laughs, always a great time.


Memories! I'm so grateful!

OUR WEEK ON PHONE

Always trying to capture a fun moment or a memory with the iPhone. But really, why? I have about 3k pictures on my phone. This week my goal is to clean that up before Heffe and I go on a trip!


Sunshine Co Op preK is one amazing school for tiny nuggets. Oh my goodness. I am blessed to be apart of this time with our Dahl.
New adventures for Rubi Joy. The love of gymnastics is deep in this girl and coming from un-flexable parents, she is ready and willing to tackle it all. We finally started gymnastics. You go girl!


Making time for one on one dates has been so special. Some fun gift cards lead us to Build a Bear. Sometimes I forget to do these things having a 9 and 11 year old. I absolutely adore this rockstar. She is as special as they come. Well, I suppose they all are but OMgoodnes, she is RAD! She can sing like an angel (but won't perform for people), her style is hilarious, she is literal, her memory is crazy, she is kind hearted and in love with her sisters (we'll not discuss her messiness). Thank you God for letting us raise her. 
I love going to flea markets, don't we all? Rose Bowl, Long Beach, Santa Monica and the use to be IVCollage. First went when Jeff and I bought the house and we practically furnished our whole home; Rachel Ashwell style. Kinda wished I kept all that junk. 




Will be going back next month to Long Beach after my ebay goods sell to get a couple of these pullies for some lights.

Family night is the best. The kids love going to Fashion Island. Coy pond, fountain, window shopping, pet shop and shared cupcakes wraps up an awesome night for our little fam. Heffe was giving us his wish list…it was long in Nike.



Have I mentioned I adore my family.

Going Horizontal

Phase 1
This man is so good at all he does. He is the hardest working person i know and loves us so much. Im so thankful for him. Forced to redo our 10+ year fence and by making it more cost effective we kept the post's, sanded them and went horizontal.

We were inspired by the fence at the OC Mart mix and Uncle T is helping with the landscape. There's going to be a couple benches and some other surprises. Always fun to hang out in front yard while the kids bike and neighbors pop in.

So awesome having a hubby make our dreams come true. He even took Sofia under the house to do pipe stuff. I only wish I had a picture of the dusty duo.

We went through all the weathers and the girls loved it, especially the mud.

The rain came but didn't stop our great neighbors and Jeff's fam to come and help. Thanks Donny, Trent, Tim, Travis, Grandad and Filemon.

To be continued and I'm freaking out and excited with the plans.
