Surf, Sun, and Siren

We spent a week in August at Dillon Beach, California with the Enns family, my parents (Grammie & Pop Pop), Uncle JJ and Uncle Matt. It was a great trip. The boys enjoyed body surfing, boogie boarding, and skim boarding. The kids had a blast playing in the sand ( or eating it in Landon's case). Amy and I are, as usual, always happy to be together. And my parents enjoyed having all their kids together. Landon was so content to dig in the sand. He would sit for hours digging, playing,eating, and then spitting the sand. He was particularly fond of the shovel. He loved trying to keep up with his cousins and improved his walking each day. We also discovered Landon has a slight obsession with trying to climb rocks. Take a close look a the background of the Enns family portrait. The small child trying to scale the rock is our little Landon. Any time we put him down he would head straight for the rocks. Needless to say, he came back from the beach with a few scrapes and splinters. He also came back from the beach with the nickname siren. This was due to his misunderstanding of the word vacation. We were all delightfully awakened at 6:00 in the morning by his loud little voice. He thought vacation meant you woke up extra early and yelled for all the people you know to wake up and come play. Good thing he is cute.
