Day 6 Huntington Beach

After the night we had before we all slept in pretty late. Chanelle had parked in a different part of the parking lot at the game so she got to go back a completely different way and was able to miss the horrible traffic we got in so she got back much earlier than us.  She was nice enough to go and get some really yummy donuts for breakfast. After being lazy fora bit we headed to Walmart to get some food and lunch and then headed to Huntington Beach because we hadn't gotten enough beach in, hah! But seriously do kids ever get sick of the beach?  I know I was all beached out by this point, but it was fun to watch the kids have so much fun with tier cousins!  We parked in a parking garage but then it was quite a walk down to the beach with all our stuff and then to make matters worse they were doing a ton of construction on the beach for some surfing championship of something so it was quite a walk around. The water was a lot warmer though and the kids really had a blast.  The crazy thing is that I hardly even touched the water on the whole trip.  A little bit on my feel was all.  I guess I am getting old because it just didn't sound very fun to me.  

 Annie and Lucy were really cute on this trip, but I cant wait until next year when Clara is three and the three of them will be inseparable.

 Clara hung with me on the towels most of the time and then we went hunting for some shells.
 

 The big kids again made their usual trench like they did every beach day.


That evening we headed back to our hotel and got ready and went to dinner at Cafe Rio that Kevin scouted out, haha!  All the while Kevin cooked up a plan to take the big kids to an Angels game, since we were so close to the stadium and they were playing the red socks who happen to be Austin's favorite team. I couldn't say no to that! So Chanelle, Kristen and I took the little kids back to the hotel and we tried to watch a show in Kristen's room and let the little ones watch a show in ours, but you can guess how that went.  We did get a fireworks show from Disneyland that night though so that was kind of fun.  We got up the next morning and headed home.  It was a great trip and we really had a ton of fun.  It sure is nice to have kids getting older and easier to take places!
