First Trip to the Beach

We have been sweltering in near 100 degree weather for the past couple of days, and it has been pretty rough for both Hannah and Kyle. So we decided to make a trip to the coast on Friday in an attempt to find some cooler weather. We had planned on meeting one of Kyle's friends to go strawberry picking in Pescadero, but unfortunately the strawberries won't be ready until the end of May. So instead we headed over to Pescadero State Beach for some play time in the sand. We never thought to take Kyle to the beach when he was this young, so we very ill prepared for keeping Hannah out of the sun. Luckily, Kyle had a spare hat in the car that kept the sun of Hannah's face, while she was lightly covered with a blanket. The weather was ideal for a day at the beach, and both kids were thoroughly worn out on the way home. As soon as we got home, Dave headed back out for a Costco shopping trip, so that next time we will be prepared for the beach with a couple of chairs and an umbrella. We're slowly getting the hang of this parenting thing!
