Huntington Beach

So our first day to go out and venture into Cali was a blast! Saturday evening we went to Huntington Beach. It was my kids 1st time to see the ocean up close (they saw it on the plane and at the aquarium earlier that day). I had put my legs in the ocean once, so it was our first time playing in the ocean, even though ShyShy wanted nothing to do with it. Rayce has been to Hawaii and Australia, so this was no new game for him, so he was teaching us the ropes. We had a BLAST!

Rayce teaching us how to body surf the waves!

The four of us having fun!


Icee wasn't so sure she liked being that deep, she would cry when she saw the wave coming, then she would laugh as soon as it passed.


Rayce trying to convince Cayge that it's okay being in the water that deep. Cayge loves sharks, so in return he has watched JAWS and other shark attack shows, so he was SURE that because we were going out that deep we were going to get attacked by sharks!


Shylee and Katlin wanted NOTING to do with the water. But they sure were cute sitting there being sun babies!


Aunt Beckie helping Icee and Naomi find sea shells.

Our new friends Oliver and Amanda. They were friends with Rayce's mom but we now LOVE them! They are awesome! Oliver showed us around all day! And Shylee fell in love with him. Amanda made us dinner 2 nights while we were in town. They are the BEST Californian's that I know!!
