The Beach in August

Last summer we went to the beach a few times and had a good time. The boys went back to school last week and I realized we never went once this summer. I talked to my mom about going a few times and she said my sisters had tried going and it was just too cold, so we put it off. What a wierd summer weather wise. My mom called me Saturday morning on her way to L.A. I told her we were going to the beach and she laughed that she was near Pendelton and it was yucky. We weren't going to Oceanside beach until later because Abbie had a birthday party that morning. As we drove towards the beach, the sky was beautiful and blue up until about 1 mile from the beach, then there was a line in the sky and we crossed over into the gray zone. It was overcast and cool (which actually felt nice and made it easier to keep Lexy out of the sunlight) and the water was like ice. I could hardly handle putting my feet in the water so I don't know how the boys managed to get in and play. The boys each brought friends- Cameron brought his old friend Trevor who sadly goes to a different middle school and Taylor brought two of his Shivela ASB friends. It was fun to have their friends come. It turned out to be a fun day, but considering it was the middle of the day in the middle of August, wierd weather. Also- this is the beach we always went to with my dad, Chris and Sasha as a kid, so it always brings back those memories too:) The pictures are a little small, but if you click on them, it will enlarge them to see better or to print
