This day was a BLAST! We got some body boards and Rob and I had a blast riding them! We would stand side by side, wait for a wave and then "race" to see who could ride it the furthest! I took him down 7-0 in the body board contest! I think he is planning on a re-match tomorrow...so I will ket you know the results!
The kids spent a TON of time playing in the sand today!
The kids spent a TON of time playing in the sand today!You can't tell from the picture (below)....but they totally looked "sugar" (white sand) coated from head (yes, that is sand in their hair!) to toe at this point. 
Earlier this summer when we were talking about our beach trip...Robbie promised the kids that they could bury him in the sand. Well, you know my kids NEVER forget ANYTHING! So, today they wanted to make good on his offer! He is such a good dad! Because, he was hot and he was sweaty and they were putting shovel fulls of sand on him that was sticking to him and getting into his swimsuit! Luckily for him, they have never seen someone REALLY burried in the sand, so after 5 mins they declared him "burried" and he was off the hook!
We brought the kids fishing poles. They just have practice weights (that look like fish) on the end. They cast them out and real them in over and over and we don't have to worry about them getting "hooked". They LOVE doing this and don't seem to mind that they arn't really fishing! So, it is a win-win for everyone!
While the kids were "fishing", there was a man on the beach who was fishing. He caught a small fish and brought it over while it was still on the pole. He wanted us to take a photo so it would look like they had actually caught something. The kids thought it was cool and complied...but they acted a bit confused as to why the man had interrupted their casting session to show them a fish. It was like.....can't you see we are busy pretend fishing here, Mister. Funny!
This is a moment I wish I could freeze in time....could my family be any more precious?!
