Extra week.... :)

So we decided to stay an extra week.

Why return to the heat right?

We're staying here in Rincon, 

aka...the "Queen of the coast".

I guess it's the holy grail of surf spots here in Cali. 

My boys are digging it: )

Well just to the north of Rincon, is this adorable little town.

Carpenteria. 

Or Carp like they call it:)

When we were doing our normal drive around and check out the

town, we came across this tiny old church on the corner.

I HAD to go on Sunday.

Whyyy aren't there adorable little tinys like 

this back at home!!!

And just as I expected, the congregation was about 30 people

and the music was just a piano and hymns.

My heart was overflowing with happiness:)

How I wish I could have taken a pic of the adorable old

couple that was celebrating !!65 years!! of marriage that day

with a small table of refreshments at the back of the church.

She was wearing a pink skirt suit and a blue lace scarf on her head the entire service:)

Her hubby was wearing suspenders and bright blue sweater

like Mr. Rogers.

I know you can picture the cuteness:)

I must admit I found myself more than once drifting away from the sermon

to admire the ceiling and stained glass windows...

and stare at the sweet old couple:)

 After the service, we walked outside to see these adorable bungalows lining the streets.

That's when I turned to hubby and said "I can't take it". 

Cuteness overload I tell ya.

This one was finishing up getting painted only the best

color in all the land.... :)

I wanted to walk up and knock on the door and just say...

give it to me. now. 

Is that weird??

We turned the corner and happened upon this little antique store.

The hubby just up and decided he's going to start collecting beach art.

Ya know, to hang in our beach house that we don't have.

....yet:)

So this extra week of relaxing has finally forced me to face my fears.

The fear of pages and tabs.

But as you can see at the top of the blog....

I conquered it!!

It only took me 5 years.
Geeesh.....
