While it has been freezing around the country, the weather here in Southern California has definitely been something to write home about. I think the forecast tomorrow is calling for rain, but for the last week or two, we’ve had weather in the 70s and 80s. The only problem with this is that London refuses to wear short sleeves. But that’s another story. Because of the gorgeous weather (and the fact that the waves were supposed to be REALLY good) we headed to the beach on Saturday. We had a fun time. Taylor surfed. Actually, I don’t think he had much fun. Apparently the waves weren’t as good as they were supposed to be. While he was out in the frigid water, London and I played in the sand. I was kind of shocked that she didn’t even try to go in the water. I think that’s the first time I’ve ever been to the beach with her when she didn’t have to be dragged from the water kicking and screaming. I couldn’t even get a decent picture of her because she refused to let go of my hand when we were even close to the water. She was a little better yesterday when we went to the beach again. Yesterday was even warmer and the water was even bearable. I didn’t go in because I wasn’t about to wear a bathing suit to the beach in January but I easily could have and would have been just fine. It’s so great to live in a place where we can actually be outside in the middle of winter.
