Seal Beach Surprise...

We took off to the O.C. for another day in the sun and were welomed by another great day at Seal Beach! As most of you know it's our favorite place to be. We did our usual Taco Surf for lunch and then onto our pier walk...only to find about 20 dolphins circling VERY close to offshore right by the pier! Then we were onto the sand for diggin and writing and playin'!!

A trip to Seal Beach just isn't complete without a picture with Slick!

The beach brings out their happiness!! Love that.

The kids spotted the dolphins and watched them forever!

Daddy gave Sammi a boost...

Here they come...

The little white caps are dolphins!! They were in such shallow water that you could see the sand kicking up from their bellys hitting the water!

They were swimming soooo fast!! We don't think the kids realized how lucky they were to witness this piece of nature! Absolutely amazing and better then any Sea World show!

Amazing...

Getting closer...

Check out that fin!

It looked like a taping of Flipper!

Here is a good shot of the pod of them getting ready to head back to the jetty!

Bye dolphins!

Next it was on to the beach park to play a little more!

Sammi being silly on the swings!

They were redoing the pier and in the parking lot was all the old pier wood...I wanted some!

Some great night shots at the pier....

It was so awesome watching the storm roll in...

Daddy just enjoying the peace and quiet...

Sammi started her digging...

Like father like son...Brody went down to the water to enjoy it!

Daddy and Brody watching the waves roll in...

Sammi wrote her name in the sand for her first time...with no help from us! We love her S's!

Another great night pier shot...

We love this place...can you tell?

Brody grabbed a stick and got into the action writing his name in the sand!

Good job Bro man!

The finished masterpiece!

Daddy decided to play the sand name game too!

Brad loves who....could it be Mommy??

Of course not...he loves Tacos and Taco Surf :) I know he still loves me, but geez honey!

He is too funny!! He cracked himself up!
