FAMILY BEACH VACATION 2016 PART 2

So Sunday was our first day at the beach and it was also Father's Day.  We surprised Kenny with a card that Elle had drawn and written on and I slipped a gift card in there for a massage at the spa in Seaside. We got everything ready and headed out for a fun day at the beach.We were anxious to see what Walker would think of the beach.  But we weren't too stressed because we knew that if Walker just hated it at least he would be able to go back to the house with Lacey and they would find something fun to do.  Luckily we didn't need to do that.  He wasn't  crazy about walking in the sand or even standing but he was happy to sit and play with a bucket and all the toys.  We found out the next day that he could last a really really long time if he was in the shade. But he did okay on this morning and played contently and with all of us for a while and then Lacey took him in for a bath and a long nap!

Building a sand castle with Miss Lacey.  She had talked about doing this since 

we told her Lacey was coming on the trip with us!

Playing CeCe in the sand

Getting used to this sand stuff!

He loves balls! Absolutely obsessed!

Once he got hot and a little tired he sat in Lacey's lap and enjoyed his lunch and his sippy for a long time.  He was still taking it all in but he was happy and with us so we counted it as a completely successful day!

Daddy was tossing them around after nap!

That evening we wanted to take the kids into town for dinner and to play in the amphitheater. We went to dinner at Bud and Alley's Pizza and the kids were pretty worn out.  Walker was pretty nuts as he usually is for dinner.  It is always stressful going to dinner with him but we still had lots of fun and enjoyed ourselves. We even made Kenny's Father's Day wish of getting to go out to eat and watch the end of the U.S. Open come true!

On the cart and ready to go!

This pictures makes me laugh! 

CeCe and Walker!

Getting some love from Nannee.

Walker was making some interesting faces in this particular photo session. He was so tired!

Enjoying the pizza!

Towards the end we gave him the little tin of parmesan cheese they brought us for our pizza and he went to town! He loved it! A little boy after my own heart!
