I brought along a couple magnifying glasses for the girls to explore with. They have been to the beach several times and I thought this would be a good chance to see it a little differently.
At one point I caught Allie making sand angels.
Scott found some charcoal and showed the girls how to use it for drawing on the big white rocks.
Even though I was wrapped in jeans and sweatshirt and wishing I had a jacket, the girls could NOT stay out of the water. The last day I gave up and let them wear their swimsuits in the cold. They were going to go in the water dressed or not. At least their cover ups were on.
It took a couple days before Allie wanted to get in the water. Mollie loves jumping in the waves.
Such a fun trip! We all loved the play time on the beach. My mom enjoyed celebrating her birthday. We saw several dolphins and a few sea lions. Fed the ducks at the pond. Thank you Zaki and Betty for giving us the opportunity to vacation as a family!
