Labor Day at the Beach

The kiddos take a walk on the Santa Monica Pier.

Hope you had a wonderful Labor Day!

Instead of getting out of the city, which we've done for the past couple of Labor Days, we opted to stay put this year and enjoy the sights and sounds of L.A.

After taking the kiddos to the enclosed, air-conditioned play space that is Giggles n' Hugs in the Century City mall on Saturday, we hit the beach today and played games on the Santa Monica Pier.

First, there was the carousel (Will's first time!), then Skee ball in the arcade. It was definitely CC's day, because she took home not one but two stuffed animals! We even did a little window shopping on the 3rd Street Promenade.

Will got into the spirit and raced around Urban Outfitters, eventually finding his way to an empty photo booth. Couldn't resist getting a picture of my own.

Yes, we #loveLA!
