Goodbye Beach!

Carmel River Beach...

One of our friends recomended this beach so for our last visit to the beach we thougth we would check it out. It was so beautiful even though it was cold. Nate played a little in the sand, and then we went down to the water to say goodbye. Nate kept running back and forth not getting wet but almost. It was intertaining untill a huge wave came in and I had to run out to grab him. We both got wet and since it was already cold we packed up and came back home. At least we did get some cute pictures before we left.

Jared promised Miley that we would bring her back to the beach when she gets a little older.

Open House and FHE Night.

Andi and Ed Ficher had an Open House, farewell party for us before we moved on Friday. It was awesome. I really didn't expect anyone to come, so it shocked me when so many people came. The food was amazing too, but of course it was, if you know Andi she is quite the chef, and goes all out. I really am glad for the time we had in Salinas and for the great friends we made, and the wonderful memories we will have forever with family, friends, and the wonderful ward. We have been blessed by all of you, Thanks.

Thank you Andi, and Ed (aka Mom and Dad in Salinas) for this wonderful farewell party. It was so nice to be able to say goodbye and see and talk to everyone who came. Thanks for making us feel loved.

Jared and Bishop Varney saying goodbye. The plate of goodies was actually the Bishops but he made Jared hold it so he wouldn't look like he was pigging out.

Monday night before we moved the Von Forell's invited us over for dinner. It was so good, pot roast and mashed potatoes, and then some apple crisp for desert. We had a wonderful time and we sure will miss them. The guys hung out in the living room and talked while watching TV. Jared watched Miley for the most part which was nice and Nate played with the kids, so I got to talk to Roxanne. It is aways nice to talk to a woman.

Jared, Miley, and Alex watching the Big Bang Theory. It is so funny, if you haven't seen it you need to. Jared always says, after we watch it, that he would be just like one of the guys on the TV series, if he didn't have me. It is so funny.

Dan and the thumbs up.

The Street all the doctors were on. North Main St exit to get home.

The broken play ground.....Cypress Creek Apartments.

The Ocean And the Beach

Its so pretty..................

Carmel.......... Monterey

Driving home..... The fields, and fields of strawberries, lettuce, and spinach.

The giant people and truck in the fields.... Our KFC and the memories there.

Going to the Movies on dates with my wonderful husband.... And Casentini St....

Of course we will miss the people more but these are just some of the buildings.

Getting ready to move.

I know we have already moved, but before we moved I didn't have time to post much so I am going back to post them now.

This is the wall we have been marking to see how much Nate is growing since we moved to Salinas. As you can see he has grown almost a whole heads length. He grows so fast.

Daddy got home for lunch and was able to get our little Miley Moo to sleep on his shoulder.

Here is Nate watching Star Wars Clone Wars while I pack and clean.

10-25 Our last Saturday here. This is us in the morning before we went to eat at First Awakenings, our favorite breakfast joint.

Nate took these 2 pictures of me while I was packing and cleaning. Our house looks so empty. We will miss our apartment. We have had so many good memories here.
