the beach

I took the kids to the beach this week. We all had a great time. The weather was great until it thundered for an hour and the life guards made everyone get out of the water. An hour after getting back in the ocean the storm clouds came and the rain fell. We left the beach in the pouring rain.

Matthew loves the beach. He plays in the sand and doesn't mind getting wet. He has learned to not eat the sand. He did a few face plants when he tripped but luckily no sand got into his eyes.

Being at the beach this week made me really miss being down there more. I mentioned to Zach a few times that if I had a beach house (and I WILL have one) I would be there right now. I have it all planned out. Its my only dream really.

Before we left to go home, I took the kids to the bayside so they could hunt for sea glass. Supposedly, my mother in law is an expert in sea glass so the kids would bring their finding to her for approval.
