beach babe

we hit up the beach in santa cruz this morning with a bunch of our friends. it was so. much. fun. the weather could not have been more perfect. not too hot. a little bit of a breeze. sun shining the entire time.leah loved the waves. she would run out as fast as her little legs could carry her and as soon as a wave started coming, i'd scoop her up. she would giggle as the freezing cold water splashed all over her and then we'd do it all over again. her braided pigtails just bounced with delight.
i don't think the smile left her face the entire three hours we were there.

pretty sure this should be a weekly adventure this summer.

Leah has your hair. It's beautiful! I never see her, so it's really fun to see pictures of her so grown up.
