We spent the day today at the beach: 8 children, 2 moms, and ONE dad…we were quite a sight! And I heard some funny comments from passersby. {I’ll leave the exact comments up to your imagination.}
The requests were high:
From Ben – “I want to see dolphins.”
From Cora – “I want to find nice shells.”
From Anna – “I want a starfish I can take home to Iowa.”
From me – “I want a gentle beach where I don’t have to worry about my kids…”
Luckily…we have great friends. They delivered on all counts that mattered. Sadly, Anna was unable to find a starfish to take home to Iowa, but she had so much fun doing other things, she forgot. Please don’t remind her. 😉 Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day:
My 2 redheaded babies.
Redheaded friends.
Cookie snatching sea-gulls
A sea-gull
My spica girl
Daddy and his baby
Three friends examining a shell
Babies having a conversation
Last, but not least, a real, live dolphin!!
Now, as long as we have enough aloe vera to get us through the night…we’ll be good.
