Afternoon at the Beach

We had a bit of a heat wave go through Southern California, so it was the perfect time to head to the beach!!  Since it felt really hot at home (it was only in the low 80's, but that is hot for Ventura!!), we knew it would be just right at the ocean.  And we were right!  It was a wonderful day to spend some time at the beach, and as always, the kids just loved it!! 

They spent most of their time at the shore, running in and out of the water.  Shane was more brave than we have seen him, but thankfully they both are not brave enough to actually swim in the ocean!

When the waves would crash, away Faith and Shane would run!  Over and over again!!

They loved having Daddy swim with them as they could go in a bit further with him! 

Later Faith and Steve walked down the beach to explore a jetty, and Shane and I played in the sand.  I think this was our most enjoyable and relaxing time at the beach!  The kids are at that great age where they can do things on their own, yet they aren't doing anything too crazy yet - such as surfing, boogie boarding, or swimming out too far!

All ready to shower off and head home!  We had to run home to get Faith ready for her weekly soccer practice. 

On another note, both kids started Awana this week and really enjoyed it!  They were both so excited to learn some Bible verses and play the games there.  Our fall is starting to fill up with activities, but it is fun doing so many different things.
