Family Beach trip

So in December, mostly for Emme's birthday, we decided to take a family paseo (outing).  We finally were able to go to the beach--as a family!  Just a one day trip to Playa Herradura (name means "horseshoe") on the Central Pacific side of Costa Rica.  The ride was about 2 1/2 hours, but not that bad at all, a very easy drive.

We packed all the food we would need, clothes, towels, etc. and we were off!  The kids were so excited and we really had a good day!

We were so thankful for this time as a family.  It was such a blessing and it was nice to actually be able to see some of the country where we are living.

We hope to go back there soon, as it is close and a cheap family trip!

Here are some of the pictures from our day:
We basically parked right on the beach!

Our drive there....pretty!

Emme, of course, made a friend!

Leyton rolling in the surf--kinda like Mimi (Sandy Figel)




This is when the rain started to come in--at the end of our day. But still such a pretty day!


We had such a great time at the beach! Thank you to everyone for your love and support.  As we have learned, it is important to take time as a family.  As you can see, we were blessed and refreshed!

Blessings to all!
