Busy mornings filled with kids’ breakfast, play, and Lowe’s sporadic naps. Afternoons spent on the beach and in the restaurant. Nights playing on deck as the sun slips underneath the hills, one last kids’ meal, and bedtime stories.

Today we hung out with friends we last saw in San Francisco. Their seven-year-old took Ouest by the hand and played with her for a couple of hours. Ouest loved every second of it.
