THE BEACH!!

ALL the girls LOVED the beach and we had SO much fun with them!
Tayte wasn't so sure at first when I set her down, but it only took her a few minutes to have it all over her.

They all got buried, even Tayter's.

Tayte did SO good. Lasted a good 3-4 hrs. every time we went.

Ty and Gigi playing catch
Tayte had NO fear of the ocean. She just wanted to run right out into it. She LOVES the water, more than any of my other ones.

Look at that sandy face. How they don't get it in their eyes and cry, I don't know.

The girls watching Dave boogie board


We had fish and chips in Carlsbad right by the boardwalk

I always get their halloween pj's at the outlet stores there

SO.... from the first day out on the beach Tyler was adament that she was NOT gonna go boogie boarding. For some reason she had this fear of going. We didn't push her the first couple days but when the last day came we were gonna try a little harder to get her out there. So we rented her a wetsuit (the water was COLD). That helped tons. Once she got out in the water and started playing she LOVED it! Dave helped her boogie board a couple times and she was hooked. She was out there all day and loving it! When we got back to the hotel she wanted to go boogie boarding again. Dangit, we should've made her go out on the first day and not the last.
Maybe next year we can get her up on a surfboard:)



AWESOME JOB TY!!


Tayte was so funny and out of control by the water. If I let go of her hand for a second, she would just run into the ocean.


Madix really suprised me too, she was out there trying to catch the waves on her belly!



Our last day:( Out on the dolphins while dad packs the car.

On the car ride home. The all did pretty good. Tayter's watched movies while the big girls listened to music on my Ipod
What a GREAT vacation to Cali! Wished we could've stayed longer, we could never get enough of that place.
Coming next is pics from our attempt at family photos on the beach...

Oh My You and Dave are so cute with your kids! How fun you can live so close to go to the beach every year!!! That is motivation for me to want to be in AZ! I love California, it has been so long since I have been back. I need to go on a vacation there soon!
