Friday - Chicken day!!

In case you missed the Holiday... Friday was National Poultry Day! Working for the chicken has sooooooo many benefits!! Of course we got the day off, plus with my company it's a standing rule that the day before a holiday you leave half day! Seriously people, the BEST company to work for, for SO many reasons!! So Alana and I planned to head to the beach Friday since it's been so hot out lately! This is our first beach trip of the year, MANY more to come!! Alana loves to wear her sunglasses and it was a perfect day for it.

On our way to Irvine to pick up Auntie Crystal, she ditched half day to come with us!

Alana was ready to hit the beach! We sat and ate some lunch on the sand and then Alana got up to running around chasing all of the birds, that she kept calling ducks.

My beach baby!

She loved digging in the sand and putting it in her bucket!


She had me on the run for at least one straight hour of chasing her up and down the beach! Best exercise ever!

After I showed her how to write her name in the sand, she stopped every 5 feet to write letters!

Chasing the birds

After a great day at the beach in the sun we headed home. My Niece Kali was performing in her first tumbling act for school. So we headed over there to see her and then they had a carnival set up for the kids! (More pics to come once I get them) Right before we walked out, Daddy won Alana this little pink kitty cat. She slept with it and it hasn't left her hands since!

While we were there, Alana had her first face painting! She sat still for it really well, better then I thought. I'm sure she's addicted now, she LOVED it!

Here's to another great day in the life of Gonzalezville!
