Family Bonfire

We spent the evening with family at Bolsa Chica State Beach. We got there just before dark and it was already a bit cool and windy, but Lacy didn't seem to mind. She tugged on Cliff's hand to head towards the water. They found some cool shells and jumped over waves. The lighting provided some very romantic looking pictures. (Thanks to Tori for the pics...we came cameraless!)

While I dried off and tried to warm up Lacy, the Aunts got to work on our gourmet seven course meal of hot dogs, chips and smores. Lacy ate a well balanced meal of cheeto puffs, pringles, and apple juice. Weird kid wouldn't have any hot dog OR smores! Lacy did laps around our bonfire area all night long. Aunt LuAnn tried to teach her duck, duck, goose...but Lacy kept patting her own head and saying duck, duck...

A little later, we got a REAL treat. There was someone walking a polar bear on the beach. just kidding... it was a dog, but it was the most ginormous dog I had ever seen. It was an Irish wolf hound and it was a puppy and still had another foot to grow. Cliff and family ran over to question the owner and ooh and aah at the dog. It was pretty cool.

We topped off the night, by stopping at a little cafe Cliff used to go to so he could get some banana nut pancakes. Lacy licked the whip cream off of Kortney's hot chocolate and had some watermelon. Then we took our tired dirty girl home to go to bed. We had SO much fun!
