Father's Day At The Beach

Since we were in California for Father's Day, I tried to make sure Terry got to do what he wanted for the day. He had really been looking forward to the beach, so we went to Huntington Beach for a few hours.
The kids really enjoyed the water, and didn't mind how cold it was. It was a bright day, with a breeze, but the water was great.
Micaela just loves to pose for pictures. My dad would call her a ham, cause she's always hamming it up for the camera.

While I watched, after soaking my feet in the salt water for awhile, the family rented a few body boards, except Micaela. All three boys got sand burns on their bellies, however, Nick was talented enough to get a sand burn in other areas.

After the beach, we went to dinner and then Downtown Disney. Micaela bought herself a Hello Kitty stuffed animal from Build-A-Bear Workshop. We checked out the pins at the different stores, Derek was bought a collectors set of Star Wars Tie-Fighters (5 tie-fighters in one box) and we spent a lot of time in the Disney Store.

Even without going to Disneyland, I love Downtown Disney. You still get the feel of Disney, without having to pay for the admission.
