A Day At The Beach

Jacob has been asking all summer long if we can go to the beach and make sandcastles, but our lovely Jenna has made that an excursion we haven't been excited to take. But now that she's sitting up and doing better in general, we figured we should take advantage of the shreds of decent weather that we have left before it's gone! So after church today, we rode off to Dash Point in anticipation of finally building a sandcastle at the beach!!!

We found a perfect little spot to set up shop and get to work! We built various sandcastles, complete with moats and feather flags (just like on Curious George!). Matt wrote Juliana and Jacob's names in the sand. He did Jacob's name really close to the edge of the incoming tide so we could watch his name fill up with water. The kids tromped through the water with smiles plastered on their faces, found shells, meanwhile Jenna played with her toys on the blanket. We were able to stay just long enough, the kids were content with our adventure and Jenna was definitely ready for a nap in the van!
