A day at the beach!

A few weeks ago my family and I took the 90 minute drive to the bay area (San Francisco) and went over to the Marin headlands to watch the surfers and dig in the sand.  The beach is our ultimate favorite place to be at….mine to relax and listen to the waves, Joe to watch the surfers, and the girls to dig in the sand, of course!  :)  Here are a few pictures…..

Ok, here is one of my favorites…… a little sun flare at the beach!  Really like this one!  If you can’t read the writing in the sand, it says “I love my mom” with the shape of a heart for “love”.  I know I’ll treasure this one forever….

Then we went on to the Golden Gate Bridge to stop and feel the breeze.  Here is another favorite of my oldest just taking it all in.  I like this one a lot because she is so much like me and was in a meditative state, just closing her eyes and feeling the wind against her face.  I used some textures on this one and just love the feel of it.  I can feel what she is feeling in this picture.

We also went over to the Discovery Museum in San Francisco to take some pics of the kids playing at the VERY cool park they have there.  This picture I have to dedicate to my friend Fara Smith…  :)  It is soooooo her style!

This one is cool because I’m starting to use my wide angle lens more.  Love the boat here.

    The Father/Daughter pics are great you need to enter them in magazines etc. I like the boat one and the one on the rocks is so intense with Graces eyes. SF bridge is different and another winner.
