Fun at the Beach

Here Sam and Tyler are really enjoying themselves at the beach. They are finally trying to play together. Poor Sam, Tyler is not great at teamwork yet, his idea of play is "Sam builds, and I knock down".

Biking in Manhattan Beach

Spending more time in Manhattan Beach. Here you see Boris and Tyler. The boys in Manhattan Beach on the balcony and at the bar, and Sam getting ready to go biking armed with his Dora helmet (he was not too happy about that, wanting Diego instead, or a monster or a dinosaur helmet).

The Piesman Tractor Pull

Not only can the wagon be used for transport of goods to and from the beach, but it can also be used to transport small children, like Sam's little brother, Tyler.

Michelle Surfing

Here is rare footage of Michelle surfing at Manhattan Beach. As you can see, her form is fantastic, it was the massive waves that she had to deal with that day that really toppled her over. Great job, Michelle. Can't wait to do it again!

Sam and Michelle Running From the Waves

Here you can see Sam and Michelle having a great time trying not to get wet. We had just arrived in California and before checking into our home, we went directly on the beach (no bathings suits on, of course). Despite being very careful, everyone got very wet.

Vacation!

We had an absolutely fantastic time in Manhattan Beach last week. We got to spend time with our niece, Michelle, and Polina and Grisha, and Boris and Julia. Here you can see everyone enjoying some time around town and at the beach.
