Surf's Up


The first week of June we packed up the car and headed to the beach, so that Rick could surf.  We had a fun filled trip, the kids enjoyed playing in the sand while daddy surfed the waves.  Our friends the Taylor's were at the beach as well, so Bryce was Rick's surfing buddy.  Right after we arrived and unloaded our car we headed strait to the beach.  It was pretty windy but we had a good time.

Our beach hut which was unfortunately destroyed by the wind that day.

The boys quickly headed off to surf.

Matthew was sad because he wanted to go surf too.

Just chillin'

My beach bums.

Asleep in the beach hut.


Before we headed back to the hotel I took Lilly down to the water for the first time.

She was happy at first.


Then she decided the water was too cold.

It wasn't so fun anymore.

That night we went to dinner at  The Little Hut with the Taylor's.  The food was super yummy.  Matthew was curious about the tiki man in the restaurant.

Lilly was exhausted from spending the day on the beach, so she slept through dinner.

The next day we checked out of our hotel and headed off to eat some breakfast.

This was the view from out hotel room.

We started a tradition, every time was go to Morro bay we have to eat breakfast at Kitty's Kitchen at least once.  Matthew had these awesome mickey mouse pancakes. (I had pancakes too.)

Rick had the Mexican omelet

After breakfast we walked around the embarcadero for a little while.  Then we headed back down to the beach.

Our ghetto beach hut. (since the tent was destroyed the day before.)

Packing up to head home.


 We also have another beach tradition.  On our way home we stop at Bob's Big Boy for dinner.  Then once the kids are stuffed full of Bob's awesome food they promptly fall asleep!



Then we have peace and quiet on the ride home!
