Saturday

Los Osos

Merry Christmas Eve all. We finally got internet access again, probably one of the last times before we return to the East Coast. We'll have to wait until then to fix my blog as well. It looks as if the picture and patterns have been messed with on our server, so we'll get those up and running next week. The Mull/Hall family has reunited and has found possibly every taco shack this side of the country in the past few days. We now have an expansive knowledge of all the different ways to serve up a fish taco. Yum.

It's been beautiful, wonderfully un-Philly weather out here. Yesterday we all sat out in the grass soaking up the warm rays. We hiked along the coast and saw the sea lions surfing the huge waves. Supposedly the biggest they've had in years from some unusual storms off the coast. We also decided to buy a "christmas tree" yesterday since we couldn't do Christmas without one. But since we're staying in someone elses home, we opted for a Christmas "shrubbery" instead :0) Hey, white lights can make any thing festive.

B has been pretty rocked by all this change and has resorted to waking up every hour or so and being WIDE awake at that. Something he's never done before. So instead of eating and crashing, he's eating and talking to us until we get up with him. Four nights of that are starting to wear on us. Last night my sweet parents took turns with him and gave Matthew and I the best Christmas present ever.... 5 1/2 hours of sleep. Wow. I haven't slept that long in 5 months! If you think about it, please pray for us that B settles down and doesn't keep this up the rest of our time here. Or we'll be shot and he'll be a mess when we come home.

We have so many amazing pictures to share, but no internet access for Matthew's computer, so we'll have to share them when we return. Here in Los Osos, we feel as if we're in Hawaii each morning as the sun burns the fog off the lush green mountains. We're staying in an amazing home that overlooks the bay and the surrounding mountians. It really is breathtaking. So Matthew has been storing up the memories on his camera for you all to see.

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas Eve and day!
