Beach Day!

 The day after California Adventure we went to Huntington Beach.  We made it there by lunch time and we ate at a restaurant on the beach called Sandy's.  We sat outside and had some good fish tacos.  Then we walked down to the beach.

 Carter loved being able to play in the sand all he wanted.

 Sienna wanted to try out the water but it was pretty cold and the waves kinda scared her at first.

 She said I'm outta here.  She eventually went back in and my dad and Garrett were helping her jump over the waves and she had a lot of fun.  She was freezing but didn't want to come out of the water.

 The kids and my dad made sand castles.

 Carter tried out the water but wasn't really into it.

 
 Sienna had sand everywhere after she got dunked by a wave.  She wore her glasses like this for a long time too.

 

Carter was a good boy and had a good nap.

 Then he woke up for more playtime.

 
 

 
We just relaxed on the beach.  It was not hot or very busy so we stayed a long time.  The kids didn't get sunburned at all but I got really burned.  The kids were really good.  We went home and got showers and then went out to Joe's Crab Shack for dinner.  My parents and Garrett got crab legs of course but I don't like crab so I got the salmon.  There was a guy there that made the coolest balloon animals we had ever seen.  Sienna got an octopus with bubbles coming off of it and Carter got a monkey climbing up a tree with bananas hanging from it.  They were really cute.  We came home the next morning so we had to bring the balloons with us.  Sienna's was huge and my mom had it by her legs the whole trip.  What a good Grandma.  When we got home the kids never played with them again but I guess that's how it goes.  We can't wait to go back to California again!
