Our Very First...

Family Trip to the Beach!
Warning: You might be blinded due to albino-ish tints coming from the people shown in these pictures. Please look at photos with caution.
Both Parker and Garrett (well, actually all of us) were not too fond of the artic cold ocean water, but the sand was a blast. Brad was a trooper and toughed it out and swam for a bit. Parker loved the shells and sand crabs.
Garrett loved being near the shore until we made him stand in it. The 85 degree air felt much better than the freezing water.
How could I resist posting such a classic father-son phot0. Love it!This is another first. Garrett never falls asleep on me, but he was tuckered out from the day o' fun. I was eating it up. On our walk back to the car he just kept getting snugglier and snugglier by the minutes until he gave in.

Hi Emily! I'm so glad to see you guys are doing well. I can't believe you have two kids too! It seems like it wasn't that long ago that I was meeting you and baby Parker at Heather's parents house! Time flies. Maybe we'll get to see each other again soon - in the meantime I'll just keep looking at your pics!

Maybe our fams should have gone together, then we could have been a whole albino clan! JUST KIDDING. You guys are not that white... besides you've only been back in the sunshine state for what, a month? :) Give it some time ;)

Haha. We are coming down this weekend and are going to the beach for the first time as a family too. Pretty sure I will be the only albino in our pictures though hehe. Hope you are well. We miss you!

Emily! I was looking at the Tingey's blog and came across yours. Your family is so cute! How fun that you guys can be back in Cali by your family. Tell your mom and grandma hi for me. They are both so cute! p.s. I love your baby sling - super cute. Aren't those great? ~ Chelsea Clarkson
