A day at the BEACH.

Well, we packed up the ELEMENT and made our way down to Manhattan Beach. 

The lunches were packed. The sand toys were in desperate need of some sand. And our bods were still soaking up the 50 spf sunscreen. (Cant be too high for the Chathams. The boys are definitely stuck with both Mom and Dads lovely fair skin. No Tan, just straight to BURN....) On our way down it was pure overcast. Looking pretty gloomy. we thought we would be back on the road in an hour because it was too cold. Well, we were wrong. The clouds parted, the breeze was blowing, and these kids were loving the Beach. Our friends Suzanne and Blair joined us for the excursion. This was Liam's first real beach trip. A big step up from the little sand box we have at home. 

We found a super close parking spot and dragged all of our toys and pasty bodies out into the sun. Enjoy these pics, which pretty much sell themselves. As you will see, the boys never want to go back to the sand and sun........yah right...
