The Beach

We had such a great Memorial Day weekend....at the beach!! On Thursday we made our way to San Clemente, CA to stay in a fun little beach house with the Lyman fam! It was such a great vacation! We just hung out on the beach all day and ate and ate and ate!! The kids had so much fun. They were completely entertained by the sand!








We had a hot tub, so we enjoyed that too!


We ventured out a little from our house and went to a public beach. It was totally packed, but it was fun people watching! haha Carl and Nick actually became hero's at this beach. A little girl was getting swept away by a wave, and they jumped in and saved her! It was really scary, but everyone came out okay.




We also had Sunni take some family pics while we were there. They turned out so cute! I only have some off of my camera, so I will post more when I get them all downloaded! The beach was great!! I want to go back!!






(Gotta love these last two pictures....Mac is just sucking on a rock.... and Ella is doing her new cheesy grin!!)
