Susan and I went to the Santa Monica pier again today--we almost didn't think we should since it was a little windy and cold this AM. BUT I am glad we did, because once again the weather was beautiful and the babies had loads of fun. Thanks for all your help Susan!
We had a lot of fun on the pier, watching all the entertainers and taking pictures with our boyfriends:
We happened to stop by this one man band on the pier---of course he's playing "Band on the Run", only Lucas' 2nd favorite Paul McCartney song!
Then he asked for their names and dedicated the next song to them...it happened to be "It's a Small World!" Ironic since we just went to Disneyland AND I (being the nerd I am) just started playing it by ear on Grandma's piano :)
Then we took a ride on the huge ferris wheel--was actually very scary to be dangling so high!
Eyeing the ferris wheel...
Like mother like daughter...we got those sticky-outy ears!
Look how beautiful the filthy water is!
Then we played on the beach:
Susan instructing them how to build sand castles :)
Grandpa picked up these delicious grapes from Costco---soo good!
So funny...he had to pick up sand from this area...with a rake of course..
and transport it to Susan's pile..as if he weren't surrounded by sand! lol. The way he walked around was like he really had a job to do--"alright (grunt)...that should do it!
...I was pushing out my stretch-marked loose skin mom belly for Susan...you don't want to see it!
Olivia kept getting stuck in this hole!
Nice background.
Yes, she did eat some sand.
Taiwanese tourists...loved Olivia--they asked to take pictures of her! She liked them too :)
Lucas upset that the beach day had to end...
Then we went to an authentic Oaxacan restaurant close by--was pretty good!
These 2 were taken with my phone (camera battery died):
It was a very nice day for all. Gotta take advantage of being this close to the beach while we are still here..6 more days til the best Valentine's Day ever :)

I don't know if my other comment posted, because the page stopped responding. But I said that I want to go back too and that you should go as often as possible while you are here. I have Lucas' rake!
