Angels game and the Beach

We went on a spontaneous trip to California last weekend because Ben wanted to see the Angels play the Mariners (he is a Mariners fan, but the Angels are his second favorite team). The highlight of the trip for Zac was his critter finding adventures. He caught 7 snails and a crab.


We went to downtown disney just to walk around. Zac loved the little lego table.

The weather was beautiful at the beach. Kylee loved digging into the sand and putting it in her mouth of coarse.

She found this frisbee and would not put it down. She kept putting sand all over in it and then dumping it out.

We went to Salt Creek Beach which usually has a great place for tide pools, but the waves were so big that Ben didn't want to take Zac out there, so they went on a lizard hunt instead.

This beach reminded me of the Oregan Coast.




Zac actually took this picture of us. He is a regular photographer now I guess. As you can see Kylee wasn't really into the game. For the first half she wanted to walk up and down the stairs and for the last half she fell asleep on Ben.

She was really into the cotton candy.

Zac enjoyed the game for the most part, but he was more excited about the cotton candy and the fireworks at the end (he used to be deathly affraid of fireworks, so that was a shocker). I love fireworks, so that was my favorite part, but I also love going to baseball games.

We had pretty good seats and the mariners won, so Ben was happy.

It was good to get away for a weekend and relax. I'm sure we'll be dieing to go to Cali. more this summer when it's blazing hot around here.
