The Jenkins Take California: Beach Edition

At the end of last July we skipped school and headed to California as a family. We hadn't been to Cali in a few years and wanted to make the best of the trip.

Setting out on a Saturday morning we arrived in Anaheim around dinner time. I'd forgotten what a long drive it is from Phoenix with children.

Sunday we loaded up the family slathered on the sunscreen and headed to the beach.

Bolsa Chica beach was perfection!

Camden was probably the most excited about seeing the ocean and hanging out at the beach for the first time. We played, collected sea shells & sand crabs, dug holes, ate snacks, got super sandy, and had a fun time. I think we'll have to try and do this again next summer.

It was an amazing day spent as a family. These are the memories I want for our children.
