Memory Lane: Balboa Beach

Since being married, we have traveled to CA 3 times as a family and never gone to the beach.  We ALMOST made it to the beach when we were there last April, but found ourselves in the parking lot having to turn around before actually setting foot in the sand.  So we were determined to make it happen this time and were able to make a small event of it with my sister, sister-in-law, nieces and nephews. The weather was amazing, especially for December.  It was a pleasure to see Leah experience the beach for the first time.
I love her messy ponytail...she looks like such a little girl!

We Marylanders didn't really think ahead of time about coming equipped with beach gear.  And we all looked like we were dressed for a day at work (business casual, of course)

Soaking up the sun (luckily my sister-in-law, Kami, thought ahead and had towels, buckets, shovels and a beach chair to share among us)



Brooke is such a sweet cousin to Leah!

C'mon, Dad!


Sweet daddy-daughter time


Yeah, we didn't bring sunscreen either.

Family beach trip #1 was a success...we look forward to many more in the future!

  1. Leah looks so old! I can't wait for her to be a sweet older cousin to our little one.
