beach day

our very own beach diva, she has the glasses and the pose down

wouldn't it be cool if we lived where this was

attack of...

SEA MONSTER
so much fun to throw
she takes to sand like
a pig takes to mud
our own little water fort

the water was cold, the air was HOT

California Closing

our last beach trip was to coronado island beach. the sand there is so smooth and pretty.

B man in the ocean...again

tessa was so anxious to play in the sand that she took off before i had everyone else in their swimsuits

a little piece of heaven

ky showing her powerful handstand

so i made everyone do it again...

and again!!

mission valley beach, california 2009

the pictures really are self explanatory. tessa loves to roll around in the sand like a pig would in the mud. kylee loves to run in the ocean and then run back to the sand. brenton NEEDS a body board, he could spend all day in the ocean.

i have sand in my pants

my kids are lovin the sand. and we still can't get all the sand out of tessa.

it's an ADDICTION...okay!!

we are trying to get...

here for Brenton's birthday (much to the dismay of my husband)

and do some of this

and ALOT of this

but mostly i just want to do this!!

what can i say...it's my HAPPY PLACE

i LOVE sandy saltwater in the sun

everyone who reads this post obviously knows of my LOVE for the California Coastline...or any warm coastline for that matter. i dedicate this post to the LOVE that my family and i have for playing in the sand and saltwater. and now i give you my childrens favorite California song by Phantom Planet...enjoy!!

We've been on the run Driving in the sun Looking out for #1 California here we come Right back where we started from

Hustlers grab your guns Your shadow weighs a ton Driving down the 101 California here we come Right back where we started from

California! Here we come!

On the stereo Listen as we go Nothing's gonna stop me now California here we come Right back where we started from


Pedal to the floor Thinkin' of the roar Gotta get us to the show California here we come Right back where we started from

California! Here we come!
