San Diego Beach Time

As you can see I am weeks behind on updating the blog so it is going to be a slow process. On September 19th we drove to San Diego for 5 days to play in the sand and see the sites. Here are some pictures of the kids at the beach. We went to La Jolla and Coronando beaches for some fun in the sun. The weather was a beautiful 70 degrees each day and the ocean water registered 62 degrees so we spent tons of time in the sand. I thought it would be really cool to bury Sean in the sand since he loved running and kicking up the sand at the beach. It is amazing that miles of sand can keep a 3 year old totally content. We did not even need to bring out the beach toys for a while.
Claire was not feeling well at the beginning of our trip but she enjoyed trying to eat the sand and stand up on the blanket. We made sand castles and played with the shovels together. It was hard when the wind would blow the sand and get in our eyes.
I wish we were closer to the beach so we could go and play more. We even had some time to relax and hear the ocean waves. Our last day at the beach put Claire into a deep sleep while Sean created masterpieces in the sand.
