Day 2 began with the plan being to go to Lego Land...so we show up at the gate at 9am and find out that the park doesn't open until 10am. So we thought we would drive down the the beach which is 5 minutes away and let the kids look at the ocean. Little did we know that that decision would change our plans for the entire day. We parked and walked out onto the beach...one thing led to the other and pretty soon the kids were all getting their shorts wet and as we were herding them out of the water Bailey looses her balance in the small wave and goes down. Straight onto her back...clothes soaked, hair full of sand, and scared out of her mind! The kids were pretty excited about the beach so we decided to switch our plans and go to Lego Land the next day. Because of Bailey's wave scare she refused to go into the water the rest of the day. She was content to play in the sand all afternoon. The boys, however, didn't come out of the water ALL day long! They LOVED playing in the waves. I was a little nervous at first, but slowly realized that they were just scared enough of the undertow that they stayed pretty close to shore!
I don't know what is going on with Zach's swim trunks...I can't seem to get them to stay up! The kids bum is hanging out in half of the pictures and the front...well...at least he is covered!
Max has been an angel this whole trip! He was great on the long drive and at the beach he was pretty content to sit in his stroller or on the beach towel eating sand! We brought our costco beach umbrella, 2 camping chairs, and a blanket! The perfect set up for being there all day! We packed a lunch in the cooler and ate there too!

I din't know that they still made muscle shirts.
That's so nice. We went to the beach last month & there's just something magical about the water & the breeze. I love watching my kids play in the ocean, too.
Looks like fun! Can't wait until you get back and we can have a nice long phone call!
