california... here we come!

actually, here we already went. after saige's birthday, saige drove back to washington with us and eeeeaaaarly monday morning saige, beckett, and i flew down to santa monica. matt couldn't miss that much work, but he came down wednesday night to spend a few days too! santa monica is so cute. it is also so exspensive, i could pass out. anyways, we had lots of fun spending time with oma and uncle jack. beckett finally was old enough to experience the magic that is oma's german cooking and he loved most things, of course. we got to see lots of family... papa, aunt brandie and uncle ray and cousin mason, tante lorle, my cousins heather and chayse, and uncle marc. and if i forgot anybody... i'm a jerk, sorry. we also went to the beach almost everyday, but the beach gets its own post because it is very special. even though sand is the grossest thing in the history of things.

saige is shy around mason...

aunt brandie brought b smencils and he pulled them in and out of their containers for hours. he doesn't even know they can write. 

 will saige's first baby be a boy? don't mess up our traditions... saige! please ignore how beckett looks like a psychopath in both photos below.
