Pacific Coast Surprise

The journaling (above) reads:

While we were visiting California, Tami wanted to see a “real” sunset. (It had been a very long time since she’d seen the sunset beyond the ocean.) So, we took a drive along the coastline and found a nice public beach where we could hang out while we watched the setting sun.

Paije and Cole lingered a little too close to the incoming waves and got an unexpected surprise. They had been walking just out side the waters path; however, when Paije took her eyes off of the ocean for a moment, she didn’t notice a much bigger wave rolling in (see photo - top center.) Moments after the photo was snapped Cole was knocked down by a rush of water. Paije did her best to rescue little brother but he was soaked. Thankfully mom’s are prepared for toddler mishaps - a change of clothes was waiting in the car.
