At the Beach - 1/1/11

We were out and about this week and found ourselves at the beach, of all places! I love the beach more in the non-summer seasons, I think. It was cold and very windy and we only stayed a few minutes, but the kids had a great time.

See, look! They're all smiling!


That's better!


The girls really liked watching these ducks.


Caleb was more interested in climbing these slippery rocks.


Everyone had fun hunting for shells. I tried to convince them to skip the ones that were all sandy and to really look for just one or two special shells. The kids had a different theory: the more shells you have, the more special they are. Now ask me what my poor car thinks. On the agenda this week: clean out the sand and shells!
