Beach Dayz

This past weekend the weather hit summer temps so we headed to the beach. It was crowded as it was still spring break , but we found a spot and pitched the tent. The water was still very cold ( there was NO way I was going in) but Erin and Paul wore their wet suits and hit the surf.

Paul was a little too confident in Erin's skills on the board. Right after this picture was taken he let go of her and that little wave in the background wiped her out and dumped her. She went under and tumbled for a bit and was on her tummy face down when Paul scooped her up. She wasn't phased one bit - Paul was a very proud Dad (but also a bit embrassed that he let his one yr old take a dump). I don't think the others on the beach were too impressed. After her first surf Erin retired to the tent for a much needed lunch break. Nothing like chomping on cold chicken after catching your first wave.

Erin was full of sand, she must have been so uncomfortable. I found more sand in her ears the following morning. Erin loved the beach and I think this will become part of our weekly routine.
