We headed to the Island on Sunday, our first trip of year. Sad, I know...we live 45 minutes away from the beach, and we haven't been but one time all summer....but there is no appeal in dragging two toddlers (and all of their gear) to the beach by myself. But since we would be joining friends (who have a tent for shade) and Randy was able to go with us, I thought it would be a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon...before we start a rough month.
It was beautiful out on the Island (translation: it was 10 degrees cooler). The water was a little cool, but it was still refreshing; and the sand was soft. Surprisingly, Laney wasn't too excited about the water--she went crazy in Corpus. But after we sat down, started digging a hole, and building/destroying a couple of sand mounds, she was ready. Unlike his sister, Josiah jumped right in with his friend, Lincoln. They immediately found fun in trying to jump over the waves and splashing in the "baby pool" we dug just a few feet from the "big pool".

Looks like you're getting good at the Photoshop collage thingy. Looks like a blessed Sunday.
These pics make me miss the beach! I don't know if I can wait the TWO YEARS it'll probably be before I see another one.
A has the same green swimsuit as Laney. I wish we could get a pic of the two of them!
Did you pick a new blog name yet?
I want to live 45 minutes from the beach! :) I thought the pics turned out great, especially that close-up of Josiah.
oh, the flashbacks...when we lived in Corpus (on the island) we were 5 minutes from the beach, keep a big bucket of beach toys, and towels in my car and were there every weekend and some weekdays.
The best days were when the ice cream man came out to the beach :)
I'm jealous of your kids tans also, lol.
Oh, do I know all about taking the kids alone while My Resident is working.
Your pictures are looking good!
