The Cool Kids

 What do we do when the weather report says it's going to be 90 degrees at the beach?  We load up the car as early as we can manage, drive on over to the Santa Monica beach house, and lay claim to four chairs in the shade.

 There's nothing better than a lounge chair and a beach towel.

And a splash pad.  There's nothing better than a splash pad on a hot day.

 And a pool.  There's nothing better than a pool. 

 And sand.  There's nothing better than a patch of sand to play in.

 Grace discovered she can fly.  She's a regular Peter Pan!

 And I spent some time just contemplating the beauty

of the day.

After some playtime in the ocean, we practiced our army crawl back to the beach house for some more fun at the splash pad and the pool.
