Finally a beach day!!

This summer has been very weird here in San Diego. It's been cold. Well, it's all relative right? But cold enough that we haven't had a single good beach day. It's usually pretty warm by now and instead it hovers in the mid 60's with overcast skies. I think it actually even sprinkled once which is unheard of!! But finally we had a day that was close to 80 and we took full advantage and went to the beach.



The kids had a blast! And so did we. We went early enough that we got good parking, too.




Tyler built a pretty good sand castle city type thing with a moat around the outside that the kids enjoyed decorating.





Then we buried the kids in the sand. They liked it.



Until Max realized what it meant to be buried in the sand.


Then someone dug a hole for Lia to sit in and she was pretty happy. It's funny, but she's not too into the water right now. Max loves the water. He went through a phase where he didn't like it either, but now he plays and jumps and runs in it. It's awesome. Lia not so much. She tends to cling to us and run away from the waves screaming. I'm pretty sure next summer she'll be over it.
