Vacation: Part 2

On Sunday morning, the 21st (Father's Day), we got up and headed to Cali. We love Southern California! Who doesn't though, right? Anyways, we headed out to Anaheim to hit the beach and go to the happiest place on Earth. That afternoon we met my Grandma Peggy and Grandpa Malcolm (my mom and her husband) at our hotel and surprised Brooklyn. She did not know they were going to Disneyland with us and she was ecstatic.

We spent Sunday afternoon at the beach on Balboa Island. The water was surprisingly warm, but Brooklyn was not a fan of the water. She loved the beach though. She was perfectly content to build sand castles and play in the sand, and since grandma and grandpa were there Brad and I had a little time to play in the water. The waves were coming in pretty high and we had so much fun. In some of the pictures you cannot even see Brad because the waves have swallowed him up.

Brooklyn playing with the beach ball that we were informed beforehand was a must have for the beach.

This is her first feel of the water. She was definitely unsure of it, and surprised by the way it felt. The sand kept being swept away under her feet and I don't think she liked feeling so unsteady.

Under much duress we finally got her to play in the water with us for a few minutes. She was fine until a really big wave came up from behind and surprised us.This is the after picture. After this, she was content to play in the sand.

This is a picture of Brooklyn and I watching Brad about to get toasted by a wave. It was so much fun! He disappeared in this one for awhile.
