California Girls -- The Beach

My parents recently purchased a vacation home within walking distance to the beach, so of course we had to go stay for a few days while we were in California. My mom and the girls and I drove over one night just in time to eat dinner and catch the sunset.


{the best we could get of the four of us trying to take a picture ourselves}

{and then we asked another beach-goer to take a photo for us}


The next morning my sister and her son arrived, so we went for a little walk along the beach before lunch.


Ava fell asleep in the baby carrier. 



My mom, sister, and nephew.

The next day my older brother and his two oldest kids joined us at the beach, and the "big kids" enjoyed playing in the sand.



It was a beautiful, warm day!



Ava hung out with me on the beach chair...



...and took a little nap.


And here's a not-so-great "selfie" shot of me too. {I suppose I'll stop hiding behind the camera for a bit.}


 Maybe next time we will actually get in the water, as in maybe next time the water won't be so freezing that it requires a wet suit to get in! Here's hoping.

The Beach

We spent Thanksgiving in California with my family and spent some time at my parent's newly acquired beach house while we were there. The weather was wonderful, and we enjoyed a nice walk on the beach.








Sara loved digging in the sand.




Sara and her cousins went back to the beach later in the day. Here they are before leaving the house. Not sure what that face is Sara is making!


And here's an awesome video of Sara doing what I think is supposed to be hula dancing, but she calls it "Sand Dancing". Silly girl. :)
