Huntington Beach

We went to Huntington Beach with John on Thursday. For some reason I got zero pictures of John - sorry! I actually did try to get a couple of the boys boogey boarding, but by the time I got the camera I think you had drifted almost all the way to the pier by then! :)
While the guys were out in the water, I still had my hands full. Huntington has shells, which Newport did not. So, yes, Zaida was determined to eat them. I seriously had to fish a couple of them out of her mouth. She is a sneaky little girl. She would crawl & get one in her hand, then turn away from me & then try to sneakily cram it into her mouth.
After she gave up on the shells she found a new game. It's called grab-the-tennis-ball-&-racquet-ball-put-them-on-the-beach-chair-then-crawl-up-after-them-then-throw-the-balls-off-and-repeat! :) Hey, it was either that or let her play with Corey's expensive sunglasses!
I think she is ready to learn how to boogey-board Daddy!

The last day of our trip we went in to Huntington again. They were having the US Open (surfing, extreme biking/skating) the week while we were there. So, we went to check out the festivities. Here is just a portion of the beach. You can see a grandstand in the backgroung, above Zaida's stroller, and that is the biking bowl. It was pretty fun to watch. But, man it was hot out!
And, at the end of this afternoon we were all worn out - some of us more than others. :)
