Lil" Surfers!

We had to take Sara down to the beach and teach her how to surf and jump the waves. She got up her very first try. Way to go! There was a flowing river into the ocean at Torrey Pines that the kids loved. They immediately took the surfboard out and started practicing their balance as they floated down the slow current.

Abby and Madison even got in on the action.



There was also tons of little pools of water the kids splashed in and made sandcastles.

It wouldn't be a day at the beach without Abby's dumping sand in her hair and laughing. At least she isn't eating as much sand as she used to.

This is my favorite time of day at the beach.

Madison chilling with Grandpa and Grandma.

We had to drag Hailey, Todd and Abby out of the water.

When it got dark we went over to Fiesta Island, roasted marshmallows (thanks Mom and Dad for the Spinmallows), and watched the Sea World fireworks
