California Dreamin...

When you hit the beach on the perfect day it is Heaven! 
No winds, 80 degrees, & great company! It does not get much better! 
Kody was defiantly ready to heat the beach in his sweet shorts! 
(He forgot his so had to borrow, needless to say he is a bit taller then then men in my family! Scary enough he found nothing wrong with them and wore them proudly all day!)
Carter was ready!
Kate was in PARADISE! She has never been to the beach before and could crawl around!
 She loved the ocean, the sand, and eating the sand! Yum!
First thing straight to the water....no fear!
We had to pull her out, the cold did not even bug her!

Eating the sand was a definite highlight for her!
Cute Aunt Melly & Uncle Porter!
Drew was quite the little stud on the boogie board!
Cole-man-a-tor!
Carter was a little more hesitant then his sister and cousins: he went to got check it out first!

Then grabbed Sammie for some reinforcement! Off they went with Sammie leading the charge!
Breaking it down?! Thinking about it?!
Then they are off....
In and out a MILLION times..
Thank goodness for BRAVE Sammie Lou!
After we had to keep pulling Kate out of the water we tried to keep her on the blanket...
She did not seem to have the same plan...
She was obviously trying to see how much sand she could actually consume and wedge in her diaper and leg rolls.....


Needless to say I think she took home 1/2 the beach!
It was the perfect END to a GREAT day!

Babies at the beach are a ton of work, but so much fun! I love her bathing suit. I can't wait for next summer when Tavin will hopefully play in the water instead of just getting his toes wet.
