California

A couple weekends ago we flew to California for a friends wedding.  Meghan had been so excited to see the beach.  All she wanted to do was "go in the ocean".  It's still early in the year so the weather wasn't warm enough to go all the way in the ocean.

 Meghan was satisfied with just putting her toes in.  The water was actually pretty cold, so was the air that evening when we got there.  It was about 60 but Meghan really wanted to stick her feet in right then.  Our hotel room was on the ocean so it was hard to tell her she had to wait.

 When we went to Oregon in 2009 we took a picture similar to this.  In both pictures Meghan was more interested in playing in the sand than looking at the camera.

 This has to be the coolest park anywhere.  It is a complete park with play structure and everything.  Meghan loved it!

 Since it was a little warmer during the day she got to play in the sand again.  She loves the sand and the beach.  I think we may have to make a week long trip next summer.

 The real reason we were in California was for a friends wedding.  Meghan knew that there was dancing involved and that's all she wanted to do.  In an effort to keep her occupied until she could dance we broke out the phone and headphones.  It worked.

And then she finally got to dance.  She danced into the night.  I wish I had half the energy she does.
