Beach Birthday Party

Kisses for Daddio
The Birthday Girl


Our tradition since Lucy's 2nd birthday is to spend all her birthdays at "our beach." So for the third year in a row we have traveled to Sycamore Cove to enjoy nature and play in the surf.

This year we didn't make reservations at the campground (BIG MISTAKE) and ended up having to "camp out" at the Best Western. Oh well, the two days at the beach were great anyway.

Several of Lucy's (and our) friends made the drive as well to celebrate Lucy's 4th birthday with her. Addie and Lucy Julie holding Makenna (her first trip to the beach)

Disney Birthday for Jim (??)

Disney is free on your birthday this year, so we decided to take Jim to Disneyland. Since it is Southern California 2Fer time they gave him a 2Fer pass, so not only did we get to enjoy Jim's birthday...but we will be back within 30 days for a trip to California Adventure. How fun is that???

My favorite is still the Enchanted Tiki Room. Lucy loved the train ride where she got to see the dinosaurs. And...it's a Pirate's Life for Jim all the way!

We also got a new camera with our tax return this year, so Jim had a very fun day playing with it at Disneyland.

Here's some of the highlights of the day:
The entrance to Pixie Hollow (plan to wait at least an hour)

Giving Iridessa a hug

My daughter is one crazy driver...hope she get's better in the next 12 years! Ha ha!
