We love the beach!!!!!!

We headed out to the coast over the weekend! We are only about 30 minutes from the Pacific Ocean....Bodega is the little place we go!!! It's beautiful out there. Not the kind of beaches that folks picture when they imagine California beaches...they are rugged and can be dangerous with rip currents and frigid waters. We have had some really hot weather here so being able to drive 30 miles and have a 20 degree temperature drop is nice. Of course this year we have AC in our new house...which is heavenly!!! The coast was very crowded because of the hot weather...but stiff fun. Edie and Ella had seen the ocean before just not as close as we were this weekend...
Here is our family picture that some nice lady took for us...

Ella prefered to stroll the sands with daddy...

Edie trying to decide if it was safe to walk in the sand...

Ella and daddy again...

Edie sitting in the sand...still not sure about it!!!

Ella looking cute.....or maybe she was chewing something...


Edie has a new favorite thing...the empty clothes basket. She likes to sit in it and she likes to push it around. She pushes it through the house and picks up anything she can find and tosses it in....

We may have finally gotten off the bottle...


just kidding...they still enjoy their bottles at nap/night time but they equally love the mustard bottle!!!

We're leaving for FL on Saturday... going to Sea World and Busch Gardens, but we're thinking of going to the beach one day while were down there. It would be our first trip to the beach in 5 years! Michaela was just 18 months old the only time we've been to the ocean... she did not like the sand at all!

The beach looks like so much fun! Isn't it nuts that they like the laundry basket? All those toys and it's the laundry basket they pick!
