We have had a crazy summer of divide and conquer. We didn't get to do much as a complete family. So the weekend before school started, we had a small window to make that happen.
We jumped in the car, and headed to California, to the beach.
The kids had so much fun playing in the sand and the water. The water was too cold for me...I'm a wuss, but they played and played.
As you can see, burying each other was the favorite.
Wyatt was NOT a fan of the sand. We had to make a towel island for him to play on. He was happy for hours, as long as he didn't have to put his feet in the sand. Funny kid.
They had sand everywhere...which, even after they washed off, meant I had sand everywhere in my car too!
We had such a good time as a family.
We had a man that was surfing with his kids come up to us and start talking to us. It turned out that he was a member of the church, and for some reason (maybe the 6 kids:) he figured we were too. It was fun to talk to him a little bit about living in California as a member.
Cute boy, and his sand-free heaven.
It was a little chilly, especially since we are used to bath water temperatures in Galveston.
I was so happy that we got to meet up with a college roommate who lives is Redondo beach. Love you girl, it was fun to catch up!
The kids love staying at a hotel. I don't know why sleeping on the floor instead of their comfortable beds is so appealing...but it is!
On our way back home, we had someone honk at us as we were driving down the freeway. Our wheel was wobbling, and when we pulled over and looked closer, we were missing 2 lug nuts. Someone had attempted to steel our rims, and failed. Luckily we didn't get in an accident...scary!
