Family of Four

We went to the beach one day while we were in California. We didn't come prepared with bathing suits; the kids went in the water in their regular clothes. But they had fun, and that's what matters.

I wonder how many times I've walked this shore. I love Zuma Beach.

Leah's futile attempt to keep the dress dry.

It's a lot more fun to embrace the water.

They're running after a little blue ball, if you look carefully.

I love this candid picture of Kayla.

Brenda took our first family picture that has all four of us. I'm surprised Leah looks pretty good in this picture. She was freezing and wanted to change into some dry clothes.

And here is Brenda's family.

I admit that Brenda took a better picture, at least in terms of the background.

I'm not happy about the reason for our trip to CA. But I'm glad the kids got to have some fun.
