We had such a blast boogie boarding at Bolsa Chica Beach!  Riding the wave was such a neat feeling… thanks Cindy for making me try it!

 

Noelle enjoying the view… 

Telling Brother Man all about it!  Noelle always talks with her hands – so does John!

Now what?

 

"I’ve had enough of this sand!!!"

 

Pics after multiple sand burials.

I loved this castle beach home next door to…

Jessie James & Sandra Bullock’s house!  I felt like such paparazzi – this is L.A. though, so it’s all part of the experience.

I LOVE these garage doors!  

Back at the Ziemke’s house.

Fresh (giant) lemons coming right up!

Grapefruit anyone?

Tangerines, oranges, limes, you name it, the Ziemke orchard’s got it!  I would kill for produce like this in my back yard.

"Nice to meet you, Mercedes!" 

Mercedes is 30 years old and is the Ziemke’s family pet.

 

Noelle simply loves animals!
