What a busy and amazing long weekend we've just had!
On Saturday, we headed over to Half Moon Bay.
It was Scotty's first visit to the ocean! (Note to self: No matter how close you live to the bay, a bay is not, in point of fact, an ocean.) There was interest....
...and plenty of contemplation....
...along with some properly pronounced caution...
...before the total abandon. What a glorious, blue, shiny day we had! Soaked from our waists down, only Scotty had the foresight to bring a change of clothes.
The rest of us rode home in damp underpants.
We had a picnic of deli sandwiches and played catch on the beach.
Scotty continued the generational tradition of creating "sand angels". It's a perfectly acceptable manner of warming up when your parents forget to bring towels. *cough*
On the way home, Erik asked Scotty if he felt scared in the waves. "No, Daddy! I felt so happy!"
Be still my heart.
And that was just Saturday! We headed up to our friend's lake house the next morning.
To be continued....
