California Dreamin'

This past week we were able to head down to California and to enjoy some sunshine even though I brought the rain and some cooler weather!!!!)  We enjoyed hanging with Grandma and Grandpa Shaw and the North's.



We hung out with the North's at their pool.  They all played for hours and hours and always wished for more time.  



We braved the beach with the wind and the cool weather (low 70's--high 60's but the water was warm--70 degrees so that made all the difference).  
The waves were not big but big enough for the kids to enjoy.  It took awhile for them (and me) to figure out how to handle the waves without being tumbled to the ground. 


Proof that I was there. . . . .


. . . . . .and actually went in the water!!!! 
 I needed to keep track of Lizzy.  Once she figured out the waves she could have swam forever!!!


Funny picture of Lizzy!!!  Why she thought of this pose is beyond me.

 This is what summer is all about (soaking up the rays enjoying a good book).  
Thomas read 2 or 3 books during our trip


Back to the beach with Grandpa Bob. 




 The third day at the beach was windy and not really good to hang in the water since there was no waves.  We hung out on the beach and searched for sand crabs (which they found one)
All the cousins (except for Curtis)
We had a wonderful vacation hanging out!!!!!
