The Beach-Part 3

I LOVE the beach! I love the smells, I love the seagulls, I love the waves, I love the sand (I just don't like to take half the sand home with me...which we did.) One of our last afternoons we went to Huntington Beach. It actually wasn't all that warm. I was really windy and a bit chilly, but that didn't stop us! Owen absolutely loved it. He threw the biggest fit when it was time to go and at that point his skin was turning purple and he had goose bumps all over him. Ali and Aves pretty much slept through the whole thing but I couldn't resist an opportunity to put those chubby little girls in their swimsuits!


Playing in the sand!


Proof that Owen walks on his toes! My little twinkle toes (:

Getting a feel for the water.

I think Aubrey was trying to trick us! She told us to turn around for a pick and just then a wave came and hit us...thus the shock face.

I think this is my vote for favorite picture of the whole trip. I love my boys!


You can start to see the cold is starting to set in for O.

Sleeping peacefully away!

Dad and Aves

Mom and Ali

The whole fam!

  4. I completely agree with you on all counts about the beach. I miss it the most out of everything about California. I seriously can't get over how beautiful your little girls are. Seriously gorgeous. You better keep an eye on them. I LOVED that pic of Owen and his daddy. Priceless!
