Hail and Farewell

This afternoon we welcomed the newest members of the EODMU8 command and said goodbye to a few others... known as a Hail and Farewell.  We went to one of the newest members of the unit Dave Daniel's house and had a great time!
And loved the pool...






Dave had a great time... got a little tired... and fell asleep...

Roche

Today Steve finally convinced me to pack up and spend the day in Roche.  He has been bugging me to go down all year... and it is not that I didn't want to go... its just driving 45 minutes to a beach when we live 6 horses away seems silly... but then again... the beach in Roche reminds me of Hawaii and every time I go down there I question why I don't go more.
Steve loaded up the car with the boards, easy up, and food along with the older two kids and left at 8am... so they could surf for a few hours prior to the tide going in.  Liam and I got there around 10:30... and headed straight for the camp.
Steve met Aiden down in Roche and later his wife Mel came to spend the day with us. We also met up with Blaine and Maria (and kiddos) and Tina and her girls.  It was a great day... with beautiful weather, good fun, playing, surfing, building, eating, climbing, and visiting...

Puerto de Santa Maria

Today Heather and her family and the kids and I met the elders from church for lunch in Puerto de Santa Maria.  We took them to Anajitos Mexican (so good) and enjoyed a wonderful sunny day by the water.
