some summer sun!

okay, i take back the comment i made about not being able to lounge on the beach...because that's what i did today-sort of. since it was a beautiful day today (unlike yesterday), i took the kids to huntington beach to enjoy some outdoor time and to get us all out of the house. plus, tyler has never been there yet, and i don't think he's swam in lake erie until today. the water was cool, but seemed warm once you get in. there was plenty of sun, and not too many people-it was the perfect day to go. both tyler and emma had fun in the water. emma did a lot better than the last time we were here, too. she wasn't as fearful of getting her feet wet by the water, and didn't seem to mind being half submerged as we played cops and robber with tyler (we are hoping to go back tomorrow, but this time with dad). i would have taken more pictures, but it was rather difficult with just me around holding a babe who does not care to stand on sand.
