The Perfect Pair

What goes together better than peanut butter and jelly...or hot cocoa and marshmellows...or butter and toast...or ...okay you get the idea...how about the BEACH and PIZZA?! A match made in heaven. Today, instead of take-out, we made our own. Yes, we cheated a little bit. The sauce isn't "homemade" and the pizza dough isn't either...but does organic count?

Today the kids and I took an excursion out to 'Onekahakaha for some salt water therapy. I'm all about pictures, but the big kids were so excited to be at the beach that they went straight for the water and never came back (until their tummies started growling and the camera HAD to be put away to tend to their needs). I did get to snap one of the Littlest and I though :)
