My sister Emily and her family came to visit right after school got out. We went to the beach with them, but first we drove up the coast to see the elephant seals. They had never taken their kids to see them, and it's always fun to watch all those huge animals sunning and fighting on their favorite local beach.
Look how bright pink the inside of his mouth is. It looks fake.
There are different age groups here during different times of the year, and when they're not here they're hunting in Alaska. The most exciting time is around Valentine's Day when they are mating and having babies. Right now the juveniles are here. They are like wrestling teenage boys, learning how to fight for a mate.
Kristen and her family came too. There was a bunch of us.
The fighting is always fun to watch. Otherwise it's a bit boring when they're all just sleeping.
Then we drove down a few miles to Hearst Beach, our favorite. Dave grilled hamburgers and hot dogs while we were looking at the elephant seals, so lunch was all ready when we got there. Then some people played in the waves while other people made sand castles and forts.
Dallin's best friend Ronan came along. This was about a week before he moved away.
Here's Emily youngest, Sabrina. I can't get enough of that curly red hair!
The big boys had fun building a fort and running around like wild people. Yay for cousins!
