The Beach

We are really enjoying summer vacation.  I have made a big effort to slow down and enjoy my kids and the times we have together.  The boys are older and enjoy hanging out with their friends (the reason Powell is not in any of these pics), going to camps, etc... but family time is a priority.  So, one of my favorite things...

AAAHHH the Beach!  There is nothing better than a warm summer night spent sitting on the sand.  Saturday night we went down to Redondo and had fish'n'chips at Salty's Fish Shack....and then walked out on the pier, hit rocks, played in the sand...and enjoyed a perfect night!
