San Onofre

This past weekend Erik went and stayed with friends at the beach for a few days.  The kids and I headed to the coast on Saturday to meet up with them and a few other friends from out of town.  We spent the morning and early afternoon enjoying picture perfect weather at San Onofre State beach.  Erik went surfing and played ultimate frisbee with the guys and the kids and I camped out on the sand and shoreline with our friend Jaymee and her new little guy, Ben (he was so cute and perfect!).

I think Erik needs a new, larger hat... either the hat shrunk or his head grew.

The waves weren't large, but the company was good.

Playing ultimate.  Erik did I nice face dive into the sand a few moments later.

Jonah did his best to be one of the boys.  He checked out the girls and wanted to go and say hi (Mommy wouldn't let him).  He wanted to go play ultimate frisbee (Mommy wouldn't let him).  He wanted to race into the waves (Mommy wouldn't let him).  He wanted to walk around and drink a beer.  Though Mommy wouldn't let him drink it, I couldn't spoil all his fun... so, I let him walk around holding it.

 

The highlight for me?  Cairo got on a surfboard for the first time with her daddy.  The water was a little too cold for Cairo so it didn't last long.  Jonah is just itching to join them... in a few years.  He's too little still.







So, I am trying to figure out why we've been living in Southern California for over 5 years now and we don't go to the beach every weekend.  Well, technically, WE don't go to the beach every weekend, but Erik does.  After two weekends in a row of perfect beach weather on the beach and extremely happy kids, I am already making plans to go back next weekend.
