Final Day at the Beach

Our final day on the beach was fun mostly sand castle building and shell searching. The water seemed chillier but it was a little hazy out so the sun was not beating down on us. Matthew had fun looking for shells and we have quite a collection to take home with us. I've enjoyed the week here but I am ready to get home (and I think the boys are ready too.

Beach-Day 2

Day 2 went very well-our friends The Johnson's joined us at the beach today (they are visiting family in Lake Jackson). We were at the beach for about 4 hours. No pictures of Alex and Courtney today-they were too busy swimming. Alex got stung by a jellyfish.

Matthew on the boogie board, he was a little hesitant at first then he kept wanting to do it over and over.

Beach Vacation-Day 1

We got here around 3:30 but by the time we unloaded, unpacked and Aaron made a grocery store run it was 6:30 before we got to the beach. Matthew was a little hesitant at first but then he was loving it-kept wanting to go a little further in the water. Ryan would not go anywhere near the water, he just dug in the sand. Matthew even wrote his name in the sand. I had to split the pictures into 2 posts because I can't figure out how to add more than 5 pictures at one time. Come back for more tomorrow!
