OUR TEAM: Huntington Beach!

We took our summer vacation a little early this year and had some great fun in good old Cali! This is one of two posts about it, I had so many great pics of the beach that I decided that I wanted to break it up from Disney! So we made it to the beach a couple of days on the trip, and this is what fun we had!

We went with Tiff and Jeremy's family and Grandma and Grandpa! Jeremy and Jeremy caught some FREEZING cold waves, but that didn't stop them from going out and Boogie boarding...Jer said that it was only the first 5 min that were bad, after that you were numb...It was only in the high sixties and low seventies when we were there for the beach, which is great if you stay out of the water....

The boys were actually really happy with this containment...They loved the beach...Boston was terrified of the water, which made keeping an eye on him a lot easier! He mostly batted the balls around (suprise) and dug in the sand. I made sand castles and he stomped on them....Within the first 2 minutes of being there, he threw sand on Grandma's sandwich...typical Boston. But he is a beach rat for sure!

The girls loved this while they were in the sand, after was a different story...Way too much sand in places that they didn't want it...hmmm. But they were our little fish, they loved chasing waves. Jayden only got knocked down once or twice...Of course they had a great time building sand castles until the boys found them and smashed them...

These two little sweeites were having a ball being together and eating snacks (the gritty sand posed no taste in cheetos or oreos) They found lots of treasures (broken seashells) and had fun digging in the sand as well. Kelsi didn't mind the water like Boston, but certainly wasn't willing to jump in as far as Jayden...

Grandma and Grandpa were so fun to have with us. We loved having the extra help too! They were troopers keeping up with the schedule!

Lucky us! We were able to spend a day and a half and spend the night with our good friends Chrissy and Mason and Family... Boston and Trey played together, faught together and and made a mess together. We were able to go take in a baseball game (Luke's) have dinner with them and the Missionaires and go to the beach! I wish we lived closer, we love you guys! The girls came and told us the boys (Boston and Trey) were taking off their clothes they were down to their diapers when I found them, and I brought Trey in to put one back on and while I did that, Boston got the Windex and had it in his mouth...ran out to grab that from him and brought that in (BTW, Chrissy and I were making dinner for the missionaries and us), and found them taking the water from the water table and making mud with it...told them not to make mud...Boston brought a 8" rock in and dropped it on the floor, I asked him to take it back out and put it in the dirt. He did, in the dirt that was the garden and right on top of Chrissy's tomatoe plant and broke it (still sorry chrissy)... Mason came home and looked at what used to be clean water in the water table, and asked what had happened, we just said, "the boys"...It was full of muddy water now. Like I said we had a great time with them and the kids made great memories! Till next time Chrissy!
