Beach Bums

While in California we HAD to be sure to make a trip to the beach and I am so glad we did. My parents live a whopping 10-15 minutes from the beach which made it so convenient! Andrew was SO excited. He had learned all about the beach in preschool last year and remembered all about it!

***He has the most beautiful profile - I love it***

Those baby blues just make me melt!


They wasted no time getting into the sand. They are definitely boys! We picked up In-n-Out on the way and ate it on the beach. I pretty much hand fed the boys to avoid them eating too much sand. There is nothing like In-n-Out and the beach....ahhh that is the life!

Andrew was stoked to get down to the water. It was quite cold, but that didn't really bother either of the boys. The waves were all Andrew could talk about for days when we talked about the beach. They played and jumped over waves. It was fun...but cold so we headed back up to the towels to play in the sand.


We buried our feet and it really actually helped to keep them warm.


Carter chased the birds - - - Andrew chased Carter


Shelley dug a nice hole to bury the boys. Andrew went first, but was not a big fan. Carter sat nicely and tried to take a drink of sand out of the bowl. Yuck! He even sat back and relaxed for a minute. It was too cute!


I have so many memories of going to the beach while I was growing up. Hopefully we can go often enough and take lots of pictures so that my little family will be able to have these wonderful memories as well. Thanks mom for taking us - it was so much fun!

Before we left Grammy took Drew for one last trip down to the water...what a wonderful Grammy she is!
