Fourth of July at the Beach

For the Fourth of July we spent the day at the beach. Doug and I got t
here at 9am to secure a spot for all of us. The Bells and Stephanie's friend Lindsey joined us as well. It was SO nice to be on a sunny beach in California instead of being stuck in dry, hot, Utah(can you tell I'm kinda over Utah?). My mom spoiled us once again with her amazing Mexican food. She brought all the stuff to make tortas for lunch. Boy were they good. Bree and Dixie were so much fun to watch on the beach. Dixie would just run all over if you let her. I also got to play with all the Bell nieces and nephews too. While at the beach my dad took Lori and Doug out surfing. My dad is the best surfing teacher there is...basically because he would push me in on a wave(I had no upper body strength to paddle into a wave). Doug a
nd Lori both caught a few waves. I was so proud of my hot surfer husband.

Time for Dixie's nap on the meema
That evening Steph and Jason came over and we waited until it was time to go see fireworks. While we waited Bree and peepa(dad) made some yummy strawberry lemonade. My dad took us on base to see them. BEST PLACE EVER. It wasn't crowded at all. The Hueneme base is my new favorite spot. It was a nice relaxing day with the family. It was really hard going back to Utah this time. My heart will always belong in California!

Don't mind Dixie picking her nose, I think it's cute
Doug was popular with the girls when he got out his ipad
