A Day at the Beach

This past Friday Ryan didn't have classes, meetings, or anything else, so we decided to take a trip to the beach. We went to La Jolla Shores, which is only about 30 minutes away from us. It's so exciting to have a beach that close to our house! We took a picnic and just hung out. The water was of course freezing cold! Ryan got in all the way, but me being the chicken that I am got in only about up to my knees. We did take pictures of ourselves, but neither of us were too happy with the result, so I will be posting pictures of other fun beach stuff. The weather was beautiful and it was a perfect day for the beach!


I thought these little boys running around were so cute, that I just had to get a picture! They reminded me of your boys, Kristen. (except 2 less, of course!)








There was a huge group of adults that came to the beach and had a competition to see who could make the best sand creation. I think this one ended up being the winner.








I thought this picture really showcased my artistic talent!




Another beautiful beach view!

Looks like fun times! I love that you showcased your own artistic abilities. I thought of you last night as I watched the Food Network Challenge. It was a pie challenge and it was sooo entertaining. Did you happen to see it? Did you remember to call Dad for his b-day?

Why didn't you post the pictures of yourselves--big chickens! I'm so envious you get to go to the beach in La Jolla.

Those kids do look like my boys. WE love the beach. Lucky Ducks!

The beach is bliss. Fun that it is so close!!! It appears that after being a school teacher, you learned to write a total of two letters (in the sand no less). That is impressive!
