Huntington Beach...HERE WE COME!

We drove straight to the beach upon arriving in California. We didn't even check in at our hotels first....we were so excited to get in the water, and play in the waves. Damon had a blast, and wasn't the slightest bit afraid of the waves, water, or sand. He built castles, let the waves hit him, and begged for more. Joe was probably the first person in the entire family to completely submerge himself in the freezing ocean. Seeing Damon and Joe playing together was priceless.

Halle on the other hand was a bit of a pill at the beach. She wanted to eat the sand, but then realized it is yucky and would cry. She was drenched and greasy with sunscreen and at one point fell backwards into the sand, creating her hair to be so greasy and sandy, each strand of hair was completely covered and visible with sand. It was a sight. She would pull her feet right up and get in the sitting position mid air everytime I tried to touch her feet to the ocean.

By the end of the day at the beach, Damon was so worn out that Joe built up a bed with sand, wrapped Damon in a towel, laid him on it....and before you knew it, Damon was out cold on Huntington Beach. It was a great day!
