A Little Fun Last Night!

 

My son, Dustin and I had dinner last night at the beach. We walked Miloh and took some photos of the sunset. He has his camera and I have mine.  We used to share my camera.  He now has his own better camera!  He shares my love of photography. He is talented.  I can't wait to see what he does with it!  He photographs differently than I do.  He has his style and I have mine.  It was fun shooting photos and exploring the beach with my son.

I love seeing the sun set and the many colors it reflects.  God is very creative and gives us so much to enjoy!  I love the silhouette photos.  I'd never tried that before.  I loved it once again.  Thanks Dustin for sharing in it with me!  I love you!

Grandma Day and the Beach!!

Looking forward to the beach on Saturday!

And a little grandma time on Friday!

Have a good weekend everyone!

A little beach and a little Disneyland!

My brother and his wife came for a visit from Arizona.  They enjoyed the cooler weather, 

a beautiful day at Newport Beach and celebrated their girls 8th birthday at Disneyland. 

 I got to tag along....Thanks Tim and Kathleen!

Taking a walk along the boardwalk.

All they wanted to do was play in the sand at the beach.

Me ~n~ Brie...my god daughter!  I love her!

Enjoying the cool water with Brie, Cassidy and Angela.

We wrote our name in the sand!

And finally the tea cups and we were ready to go home!  The girls were still going strong but mom and dad and Aunt Connie were too tired for any more!  It was a great day and Happy Birthday girls!  I love you!

Fun on the Beach

We had one sunny afternoon on the beach and it felt so good to sit in the sand and enjoy it!

Mason was a busy body and was using his mom as his jungle gym on the blanket.  He decided he wanted her sunglasses!  And boy was he quick!

He was using leverage to get those sunglasses off her face!  :)

Then it was onto the ties on her swimsuit...oh, let's see what we can pull on now!!
Then he found a bucket!
Then it was off to find something else...A TIP FOR ALL MOM OF CRAWLERS.... to keep a crawler on the blanket...just sprinkle it with puffs.  He stayed on the blanket playing and eating for quite some time.

Then it was off to see the water....waiting for the waves to come in.
He loved the sand in his toes and the water at his feet.  He didn't cry once and just stood there waiting for the next wave.

Oh...Uncle Dustin found something...I wonder what it is??
Uncle Dustin running to see Kayla and who knows what he's got up his sleeve after that??

Danielle, Mason, me(with my white legs!!) and the hubby
All of us!
Look what Uncle Dustin found???  The biggest sand crab we had ever seen and there were a lot of them!

Dustin and Kayla loving on the sand crab!!
It was all too much fun!  Mason had to catch a quick nap to keep up his busy schedule!  All in a very fun day at the beach!

The Beauty of God

We had a wonderful time at the beach.  It turned out to be more of a natural beach that the surfers enjoy.  Lots of good waves!  The beach was a 15 min. hike from our camp.  The camp sites were on the bluffs above the coast.  Here are a few photos of God's gift to us on earth.

The path to the surfer beach.

A bunny played nearby!

Lots of natural vegetation.  My son caught this photo for me...I love it!

A flock of birds flew by and were changing their configuration as they flew.  Amazing!

More natural vegetation on the top of the bluffs and the ocean is the blue out yonder.

This is the surfer beach one morning....overcast and cool...

not too many people and lots of rocks!

Dolphins were hanging out with the surfers one afternoon.

Part of our campsite!

A beautiful sunset that I caught one night.  A great place to relax and renew at the beach enjoying God's creation.  Now back to reality!!!

Headed to the Beach!!

We're headed to the beach in our motorhome for some much need R&R.  I plan on reading, people watching, sitting on the beach getting my legs and arms tan, taking walks and just enjoying the sound of the waves each day.  It's been overcast and cool here in sunny southern California for the last two weeks.  I'm praying for warm sunny days for you and for me!

AND HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO MY DAD, HUBBY, NATE(1ST TIME), DALLAS, RAY AND ALL THE OTHER WONDERFUL FATHERS OUT THERE!  ENJOY YOUR DAY!

***Thanks to Kathy at Mille Fleur for the wonderful photo.
