We went to the beach today to celebrate Memorial Day. So did everyone else in Southern California. But I guess it wouldn't be the beach or L.A. without a million other people and no where to park. So, we just go with the flow and pretend like it's not ANNOYING. Plus, parking 10 blocks from the beach means we got a little extra exercise today. Oh goodie.
Johnny spent most of the time clutching the skin on the back of his dad's neck. He was terrified of the water!
I think he might be looking for me in this picture. What a sad, desperate look on his face ...
He slowly started to loosen his grip and enjoy the scenery.
When I came over to join the picture, he wrapped his arm around my neck. He tickles me pink.
An hour later, Johnny and I were ready to leave not having dipped as much as our big toes in the water. What stamina! Brian acquiesced after taking a few rides on the boogie board and nearly losing his trunks! Since we went with our friends from church, we are all grateful he was able to catch them as they slid past his knees. Eek!P.S. Happy Memorial Day. We are so grateful for the soldiers who have bravely given their lives for our freedom.

Way to have a positive attitude about the crowds...I can't say I'm a fan either of sharing the beach with so many, but you do what you gotta do!
If Johnny got to hang out with Crazy Grandma Merrell more, the roar of the ocean wouldn't be so scary to him!
