Night at the beach...

A little bit ago, on Brian's day off, some of Brian's teammates and us walked to the beach to hang out! We all ate dinner and had some good japanese beers on the deck of a pretty yummy cafe (thankfully they had a menu in English!), and we got to watch a great sunset and shared a lot of laughs as the kids played and ran around (by kids I mean Austin, who was the only one old enough to actually run around, the other ones are still all under the age of one!) It was a really fun night with our friends and Austin loved running around in the sand at night, thankfully there were a lot of Japanese kids there his age for him to play with too!)
Hanging out together, enjoying a beautiful night at the beach!!

Austin loved being able to play in the sand and look up at the stars (or "tars" as he calls them!)

Sharing a laugh with his girlfriend Logan...Austin has quite the crush on her!
(Austin calls her "Katie" though...we think it's because there is another girl named Katie here who Austin also loves and now he just thinks all the girls here should be called Katie!! We keep telling him her name is Logan, but he insists on calling her Katie! It's pretty funny!)

After dinner we walked over to the Big Banana to let Austin have some fun with the toy cars they have there! It's the best place to hangout!

Austin was having too much fun driving his cars to come join us for a family picture!

Not ready for the graveyard shift yet!

Hanging out at the Big Banana!

Checking out the stars with Dadda!

Austin was a big fan of all the boats lit up on the water!

Brooke not so sure about being so bundled up!! The weather is definitely starting to cool off at night finally!

This was their reaction when we told them it was time to go home...they weren't all that happy about it! Austin was having too much fun to leave!

So glad you guys are having a fabulous time! I miss you tons and tons! I have not updated my blog in months, I think...and have been going a little stir crazy. Will you please send me an email and tell me how you manage naps and bedtime with Miss Brookie poo...I am having a rough time here, (night time isn't too bad, but naps are...not good.) and you just are the best mom I know!
Love ya!!!
