Beach Day!

While the rest of the country is frozen solid and dreaming of sunshine, we are living the dream out here in Southern California!  Oh, sure, some nights the temperature does dip down into the high 40s, but as soon as the sun comes up, the day is warm and beautiful.

Dan and Ben had a long weekend for President's Day, so we took advantage and hit the beach!  My friend Angie took her boys and everyone had a great time playing with each other.  Angie's parents are visiting from North Dakota so a beach day was needed to thaw them out from a harsh winter.  Four adults is just about the right number to watch six kids at the beach anyway.

Dan and Cael spent most of their time in the water, attempting to boogie board.  Ben and Coen dug a series of holes that would then fill with water for Hannah to play in.  She wasn't a huge fan of the big ocean, but she could handle small Ben-made puddles.  She also thoroughly enjoyed the snacks that are a mandatory part of any beach day--Cheetos, popcorn, juice boxes, trail mix, PB & J sandwiches.

If anyone wants to join us on our next beach day, come on out!
