The Beach - What a day!

So it was freezing cold at home because of what the weather forecasters called an inversion of cold air trapped low in the valley. They also said that the coast was alot warmer because of what was happening in the valley. Jer had the weekend off so we said let's head to the coast. Oh my goodness did we hit the JACKPOT! The weather was perfect, NO WIND, we were comfortable in t shirts. Of course the water was FLIPPING cold. But we still had a blast and once our feet were numb the ocean was ok. I kept saying over and over, this is January, this is January because the weather was AMAZING! The biggest obstacle to overcome was Calleigh's fear of the ocean every visit she has freaked out, we were pleasantly surprised by her new reaction, she was OVERJOYED! HOORAY!!!
We got a late start and as you can see the girls didn't make it......
But they woke up quick once they realized where they were! Love this pic of Dad and his girls!
The Big rock was full of Harbor seals.

And of course EVERYWHERE we go they gotta throw rocks!


Can you see the Harbor Seals, as we moved back they would come closer and closer!





Watching the seals!



Wanna see my rock!
Loved that I caught the seagull!

Dad and his girls!


Jer had to catch the splash!

These two pics were the same pic, but just different camera settings, LOVE that they look so DIFFERENT!

After visiting the Tidepools and lighthouse we had to go find SAND!
Lora wrote her name for us!
Cal had to write too!



Dad wrote the girl's name in the sand for them!
She's in the ocean......and not freaking out! HOORAY!


Quick RUN!










She's LOVING every minute, so different from last time.


Come on Dad, one more time!

Lora kept saying, it's cold, it's cold. She didn't go as deep as her Dad and Cal, which normally she doesn't care how cold it is, guess it really was too cold!
My cutie





Love these pics!
RUN!!!!!

Ready, Set, GO!



She's going to go down.....
Told you so!

For whatever reason she thought it was SO fun to throw the sand in the air, over and over!



She got some air!
Meanwhile Dad and Lora were building a Sandcastle, but they later decided just to build a mountain, much easier and our feet were starting to really lose all feeling.......

The faces that she makes are priceless
Busy working for his girls.
Helping her Dad
Cal decided to help well atleast for a few minutes


Okay back to her digging and throwing



I see you mom!
Another Silly Face
Just LOVE this shot of her

Lora and her Mountain
Cal decided to help again, but now they were starting to complain about their feet really being cold so that was as far as we got. Better go to Mo's and warm up with some Clam Chowder.
