It isn't a San Diego summer without a full day exhausting yourself at the beach!
These kids are just getting so big! All three of the big kids love to take turns boogie boarding now. Though they still need assistance and don't go out to far, it is so fun watching them learn this kind of fun. Poor little Conner is still too light to weigh down the boogie board. Any wave of substance just throws the whole thing over with him in tow. Poor boy. But he didn't stop trying and loved every little wave he caught. Kellen is getting pretty good and Makenna is old enough to hold her own and even tries to go out farther than I am comfortable with. It is both fun and scary watching them get older and take on new adventures.

Makenna showed little Carys what sand crabs are and after that she was content to play in the sand, did holes, watch the sand crabs and occasionally run away from the waves. She is just too cute for words. 


The kids and I dug a Huge hole together. And then they played in it for hours. It was such a perfect little kiddie pool for Carys. I remember when I was a kid my favorite things to do at the beach were to make drip castles and then to go and roll in the hot dry sand right after getting out of the cold water. And the neat thing is that even when you are 30 years old, those instincts from your childhood come right back. And I find myself doing those same things, but instead I am surrounded by my kids and family, rolling in the hot sand with them. Life couldn't be sweeter!


Me and my love!
