We are back! Our time in Oxnard was so great and we loved all the time that we were able to share as a family. Some highlights of things that filled our days. We have stayed in the same house the last three years and it is just perfect for us:
We eat our first dinner at toppers:
Then we catch the sunset from the roof top deck:
Time at the beach:
We got to surf fish too!
It is so peaceful...
Night walks:
Overcast or sunny, Ryder had the goal of going in the ocean every day so everyday had time spent right here:
We spent time in Ventura for lunch, walking on the pier, and thrifting:
Four of us did our annual hike up to to Mugu Peak:
We biked 15 miles from Ojai to Ventura and it was so pretty! This is our second year doing it and I think it is now a tradition:
After the ride, we ate at Padaro Grill in Carpenteria:
We went to the farmer's market:
Kit went on a double date with Tommy and Ruby for Boba, and Ryder and I took a date to the tackle shop and smoothies:
We also got to go paddle boarding:
Every evening was spent playing games and making meals together. There was so much laughter, and silliness...
The games this year: Skull King, Catan, King Monkey, Wiz Bang, Were Wolf, Penny Drop, Charades, Poor Man's, and chess and checkers...

2012 with all 5 kiddos:
And here we are in 2022:
I can't believe how fast time goes...
The time that we get to spend together each year in this sweet place, enjoying traditions and making memories... I love my family so much!
