Yesterday was Tim's 24th birthday. We had a really nice day. We went out to breakfast at O.D.'s Kitchen with my sister and Grandma Becky. Then we had down towards Monterey to drop Kelsey back off at school and swing by the beach. We ended up at Sand Dollar Beach. The weather was nice and the beach was beautiful. The water was cold but Tim went in anyways. Crazy, I know. He also built a sand castle while Mina & my sister Kelsey collected shells. Too bad he built it too close to the waves. Twice. Mina had a blast hanging with her Auntie Kelsey & exploring. She got knocked down by a wave but it didn't slow her down a bit. She loved letting the water "get' her toes. As beautiful as the beach was, it is kind of difficult to get to. You have to park in a residential area & walk down this steep hill to a set of steps. Unfortunately for me Sand Dollar is not a public beach. Aka no public bathrooms. So my Grandma Becky & I had to walk about an 1/8 of a mile across the beach to the Manresa State beach entrance & climb those stair to get to a bathroom.Then we had to hike back to the car. So I got plenty of exercise.
The water was pretty darn cold but Tim jumped in anyways. It lasted for a whole 10 seconds.
Mina & Auntie Kelsey found some really pretty shells & sand dollars.
Looking for shells.
The magnificent castle my wonderful husband built. "For Mina" ;)
Oh man, you probably had to go potty again by the time you got back to Sand dollar!! :( Glad you guys had a nice day together as a fam.
