Helping Daddy Celebrate the BIG 40!

For daddy's Birthday we started the day off with presents in bed. Daddy got a lot of stuff including a cool Speed Racer car. Speed Racer was daddy's favorite cartoon when he was a little boy. Then we had cake.. the traditional ice-cream cake from Baskin Robbins. Then we were off to the beach. Daddy got to choose what we did and he wanted to go to the beach and fish.
We found a beautiful spot by the lighthouse. Nice for fishing and nobody around. Mateo and mommy picked shells while Daddy fished. And thank goodness Mateo finished his snacks and was able to use the can for his shells.. it kept him busy for hours... to think what we would have done without it!
Then daddy caught a fish... a Cabazone.. never heard of that one but daddy was happy and Mateo got to help! We finished the day with a dinner sitting outside on the water at Sam's Chowder House which we will definitely go back to. Daddy said it was the best dinner he has ever had. woo Hoo!!


Mmmnn cake time!



Fun at the beach
