On Thursday my Mom and Jesse drove down and picked us up, and we headed west to Carpinteria State Beach for the weekend. We had a lovely time! We could not have asked for better weather (sunny and 75 degrees) and as always we enjoyed spending time with "Grandma" and "Grandpa Jesse".
Gathering wet sand for a little sandcastle-making
Busy at work
Jonathan was intrigued by the water and would smile and giggle when the water touched him.
I love this picture of my mom! She looks so happy and it will always remind me of her and Jonathan's giggles that could be heard from my chair on the beach.
The weather was so nice and warm the boys actually got sunburned cheeks! (despite their hats and sunscreen)
Digging with Daddy
Jonathan loved toddling around on the beach...he'd follow all the seabirds calling out, "Doggie, doggie..."
Aden spent a lot of his playtime "mowing the lawn" both at the beach and at the campsite
Beautiful Carpinteria
On Friday night we let Aden stay up late so he could roast marshmallows and make s'mores with the grown-ups. He was so excited to eat the marshmallows that he would hold his stick over the fire for 2 seconds then say, "It's all done!" at which time he would pull it off and shove the whole thing in his mouth. Needless to say, his s'more making experience never made it past the marshmallows. Maybe next year he'll get to experience s'mores in their full glory.
