CA trip - Saturday

Danny gets to go to California most every year for work (which happens to be where we grew up in the LA area and is free). It's always so fun to go back and see the beach, friends and get out of the AZ heat! I seriously don't miss CA drivers though, I'm scared driving here, I grip the wheel so hard I have to pry my fingers off when I stop the car to get out. I'm like a nervous old lady and I can't believe I used to be one of those crazy aggresive drivers but you have to be or your gonna get ran over! We got to stay this year at the Westlake Hyatt which is very nice and only 30 min. away from the beaches. I figured I would do a little blog every day so it doesn't take me 50 years to get them on here like our last trip that we just did. I wonder if Kassidy is getting sick of the car? lol. We had a great time at the beach today and hung out with daddy, Kassidy misses him! My phone camera does not take good pics but this is all I got, I'll have to remember to bring my camera next time.

Things we saw at the beach today:
- seagulls helping themselves to our snacks while we were having family frolicking (good word huh?) time in the water
- young guy probably in his late 30's with an older lady probably in her 70's laying together on the sand. she was seriously tore up wrinkly from the sun...and not to mention u.g.l.y.
- 2 young boogyboarders who didn't know how to boogy board
- feet/legs buried in the sand
- huge sand crab
- tons of seewead
- no cute lifeguards, just an old man
- porta potties lined up by the side of the road that we got to visit

A cool little place we found to play after dinner with a bunch of cute shops and restaurants
Kassidy taking a silly picture

If you are looking at these pics I hope you are jelous that we ate dinner outside.

View of the ocean, I absolutely love it and miss it!

I threw the seaweed at Kassidy and she shouts "mommy, I don't like you".

I have never seen a sandcrab this big.

Beach day!!!!



Kassidy making a wish at the fountain...hope you wished for something fabulous!

Seriously???? This was inside our room. We can go to the store and get it for $1.25

Well I guess THIS is a little better...not really

This is our view????
