Another day at the beach

I love living in SoCal! We have the beach just 15 minutes away (it's actually less then 5 miles, but with traffic it takes a little while to get there!) and we try to go there as often as we can. The kids love the sand and the waves, catching sand crabs and collecting shells. And Owen has gotten braver and has even let Scott take him out on a bodyboard lately. (We tried to get him to take surf lessons instead of swim lessons this summer but he said he wasn't ready for that yet. Maybe next year.) Here's some pictures from one of our most recent trips.

Getting out is the hardest part for Owen. I think he needs to grow a little!

Coming in off the wave.

One of their favorite things to do...

...the end result!
