Fort Bragg

On Wednesday we went to Fort Bragg. We hung out at Jan and Lou's in the morning. And then mid morning headed to the beach. You never know what kind of weather you will have there but we were so lucky. The weather was amazing. 75 degrees and no wind. We played all day and we played hard.

We started out at glass beach. We went down to the beach and the kids played in the water and collected rocks. Braxton was having the time of his life. Olivia found a hermit crab. When she picked it up the second time he vacated the shell. SAD!

Little miss sassy!

 These kids are so cute.

 We decided we needed to feed these kids. so we headed to the parking lot for some lunch.

 Katelyn LOVED Janice. It was seriously the cutest thing.

After lunch we went on a bike ride. That was interesting. Braxton still has a lot of fear when it comes to biking so that was a real test of my patience and I may have failed.......oops! Lou, Olivia, Braxton and I biked while the rest of the crew walked. Well Katelyn biked with my mom and Janice.

Then we loaded up the kids bikes and Lou and I biked a little faster without them.

After that we ended up Sand Dollar (10 mile) beach. We spent the rest of the day here and it was awesome. Braxton was in heaven and played in the water the entire time. He didn't stop until we dragged him out. The girls did some water and some relaxing. It was a perfect afternoon.

 I LOVE Fort Bragg. It is the perfect playground for kids and adults alike. We played until way past dinner time. OOOPS! Lou bought everyone fries at McDonalds and then we headed back to Willits.


We made a stop at Grandma Browns. The kids loved throwing Molly's toy for her. We had a nice visit and took a few pictures.

We didn't get back to Jan and Lou's until well after 9pm. We got the kids some food and put them to bed. We skipped showering because they were all so tired. Poor Braxton was totally sunburned. DANG!!!! I hate that when I have the kids and forget to reapply sunscreen. This was my favorite day in California. It was so fun and nice.
