Santa Monica Beach

We took our first own little family vacation ever (where we weren't intentionally going to see family, but we still managed it!) and we went to California for 5 days. Day 1 we met up with Ephraim and Kimm at Santa Monica beach and spent the day eating snacks, watching the waves and playing in the sand. It was awesome! The water was cold, but at least it was BLUE! (I am not a big fan of the brown ocean water in Texas. :) Really, I don't think we could have asked for a more perfect day!
