Home from vacation and back at it!

We are now back from our long awaited family vacation to Newport Beach CA.  It was so fun to play at the beach and to get away.  I did not answer my phone or even check my email so it really was a get away!  

Now I am home and always playing catch up it seems.  This week has been busy and 

feels like me against the world.  Ever feel that way?  I know its silly (does it make you think of that 80's song...?ha!)  but its just been a rough week.  I think its tough on the kids having Kurt and me all alone with them for 10 days doing nothing other than playing with them and reading with them and spending time with them and then we come home and WHAM!  Dad is back at work and I

 am trying to clean up the house and figure out my next meal for meal group swap and getting them registered for school and setting up co-op preschool for Emma and taking Clark to the doctor again and coaching soccer and driving kids to piano lessons and trying to exercise and lose weight and in general not handling my life as well as I could have if I were a better person!  In time I'm sure I will figure it out ..... well I Hope I will! 

these are just a few of the many hundreds of photos that I took, the beach is one of my absolute favorite places to take pictures!
