The kids and I had a great time on our annual summer trip to visit Mom & Dad at the beach. We got to spend five days this year and the kids did great! They were real fish this year in the water. We didn’t actually go to the ocean, but went to the sound 3 different times & 3 different areas. It was much calmer there, almost no waves, and the water is much more shallow. We didn’t feel as if we had to constantly watch them in the water. Leah and Andrew both had no fear—they’d get in up to their necks and splash around until we had to force them out!
Maybe next year this little one will enjoy the beach a little more. She wasn’t a huge fan of the sand or the water but she did like splashing her hands in a little bucket. And she loved sitting with Grandma or Grandpa.
Saturday night we went to a little party at the home of some friends of Mom’s & Dad’s. They live on the sound and had a great little swimming area there. Leah & I even got to take a boat ride. I didn’t get any pictures, but I think Leah really did enjoy it, even though the whole time she kept asking when we were going back!
Abigail enjoyed her very own piece of watermelon!
When we weren’t on the beach, we still tried to spend more time outside. We splashed in a big bucket, we drew with sidewalk chalk, and the last day we even got to take the kids to play putt putt golf! That was quite funny to watch. They both dragged the ball around with their clubs until they got it in the hole.
Check out the concentration required!
Andrew loved the dinosaurs. And the cave. Abigail enjoyed her view from the stroller.
