Another fun weekend at the beach

We were lucky enough this last weekend to have our friends come to the beach with us for the Mother's Day weekend.  Lluc (Lily's BFF), his baby sister Marina, mom Delores and grandpa Peter all came along.  We also enjoyed the annual opening of "Funland".  The weather wasn't wonderful, but the kids found some breaks in the rain to enjoy playing outside.  Lots of running around, playing on rides and learning how to ride tricycles.  A few stubbed toes were the side effect.  But definitely well worth it.

The adults also enjoyed some fantastic food.  Because our friends are from Spain, we got to enjoy a real Spanish seafood paella complete with shrimp, muscles, clams and calamari.  Boy, was it AWESOME!  We even have our own paella pan now.

Then we came back from the beach and headed to our Korean friends that live in the neighborhood for a crab feast.  Totally interesting watching Koreans eat blue crabs.  They definitely eat more of it than we do.

Some pictures of the weekend to enjoy:

First day of the year at Funland

First ride is the boats

Fire engines are next

Then the airplanes (a little more daring)

And even more daring is Lily's first ferris wheel type ride 

(she even mentioned that her tummy felt funny)

Back to the kiddy rides

Getting some love on the beach (a little early if you ask me)
