Hawks Bathing in the Shade

Every July we take a trip down south to spend a week of fun in the sun with Los Lynches.

The rest of the year Mommy & Daddy Hawk spend a lot of time responding to questions as follows: How long until we go to "Sun Diego" again? How long is a year from now? Is a month from now tomorrow when I wake up? Etc.

Finally, the special day arrives and the girls are plucked from their little nests at 5AM. Daddy Hawk takes care of the grocery run, car packing, and early AM driving. We usually arrive in San Diego 10-11 hours later after visiting every McDonald's bathroom on the I-5. God forbid the girls(including mommy) coordinate potty breaks.

Some rare pics of hawks in the sun:






We also had Nora Jane's birthday party in San Diego which went down in usual style. See for yourself.



The happier moments:


Yeah, it was staged. (Auntie Annie had whispered "Will you smile for a picture with me if I give you your present?")


"And one more & we'll give you all your presents..."


Note to Mama Hawk: Next year keep "Sun Diego" and the birthday festivities separate.
