On New Year's Day


We lallygagged in the morning determined to make the day momentous, but too tired and lazy to get out the door.


I yearned to see the ocean so we slowly and then ferociously got ready for our adventure. We ended up taking PCH up to Malibu, making our destination the Malibu Colony Mart, as we drove up Rhys pointed excitedly out the window yelling at Henry to "see the ocean!" Henry then began a short explanation that this was the Pacific Ocean, as opposed to all the other oceans out there in our wide world.


The kids were thrilled to play in the playground that's set in the center of the complex. It was very windy, so windy that the sand kept swirling up and hitting all those unfortunate enough to be in the way.


They found a bunch of kids their age to play with, it was such a joy to see them running around with their new friends.


We eventually made our way down to the beach and took a bunch of pictures. On the way home I was fortunate enough to capture a splendid pink sunset!


It was such a beautiful day. I couldn't think of a more magical way to start the New Year.
