Spring Break

We took a day to do a little "spring break" trip.  Ryan of course does not get spring break but he took a day off so we could go to the beach.  We are super big fans of living two hours away from the beach, now this is not nice warm Southern California beaches, this is Northern California (family: think Oregon coast but slightly less overcast), the water is freezing and the outside temperature is not much over 65.  But everyone is still there shivering in their skimpy swimsuits which I think is dumb, maybe they just do it out of principal because after all this is a California and it is a beach. Whatever.  I make the girls wear long sleeves. Anyway we go for the awesome view and the sand (and because it was going to be 95 in Sacramento).  The girls LOVE playing in the sand, especially Rachel she just rolls around in it and got a face full several times.

Rachel couldn't get enough.

The Jelly Belly Factory was on the way so we made
a stop.  The line for a tour was super long though
so we bought some jelly beans and snapped some
pictures and left.

The look Emily gave me.

The look Emily gave Lauren.  Lauren is clearly a favorite.
