A day of rest... (and lots of photos)

So yes, we played hooky from church on Sunday. But wait till you see the photos - you'll fully understand why we decided to take a "day of rest" at the beach! Days like this don't come around in February very often, so we decided to take full advantage. (Those of you reading this in San Diego, you won't understand!:) It was beautiful at Pacific City - 65, sunny, light breeze. It makes it feel like spring is just around the corner. Of course, it's supposed to rain tomorrow. And for the rest of the week.


Jack decided it was too cold to surf. Aidan pitched a fit until Shawn agreed to take him out. It took 15 min. to suit him up. He caught one wave. Then he was done!



They don't just snowboard in the snow, you know. They can shred on the sand too! Jackson had a couple of pretty sweet wipeouts, but he toughed it out after a few tears.




Aidan is at that stage where he HAS to do everything that Jackson does. Luckily, he has absolutely NO FEAR AT ALL. Scary.



He's such a maniac. Jackson had to take a break to recover from his spills. Aidan went back up the hill JUST so he could fall down it again. Seriously, there was sand all over his face, and he wouldn't even stop to let me brush it off. He's completely insane.




Stayed until the sun went down...and headed home tired, sandy, and completely content!
