Unplanned Beach Trip

Our first trip to the beach was purely to appease the cries of two little boys, Jack and Andrew. They had talked of nothing but the beach since our arrival in Newport. So after a yummy lunch in Laguna we decided to make a quick stop. We rolled our pants up and hoped that no one (Jack and Andrew) would get soaked.

Lyla either knew she wasn't dressed appropriately
or just didn't want to get dirty because her stint in the sand lasted less than ten seconds. After daddy saved her from the sand she cleaned every single grain of sand from her feet.

Happy girl, safe in daddy's arms.

Henry loved the sand, he is one little boy who doesn't mind getting dirty.

Jack was in heaven, he seriously talked about the beach for weeks before we went!

Jack and Andrew were hesitant at first to get their toes wet. But all they needed was a little encouragement and they were hooked. A few minutes later while playing some sort of game involving throwing seaweed Andrew slipped and got soaked. A few minutes after that while Jack was "chasing" waves it was his turn to get wet when a wave that was a little larger than anticipated knocked him over. So we left Laguna Beach with two very wet toddlers, one very sandy baby boy, and one very clean baby girl.
