We had an exciting week last week. Chris' mom came to visit, and the kids were ready. Grace wrote out a list of all that she wanted to do with Grandma. They varied from getting ice cream, to playing soccer, to going to the "beach on the ocean". On Saturday we went to Panama City, which is only about 1.5 hours away and spent the day on the beach. It was really hot and humid, but being on the beach with a breeze made it bearable.
This was the view from our towels. The sand was super soft, almost like powdered sugar. It was great to play and walk on, but it stuck EVERYWHERE. I am still finding sand.
Olivia loved the sand. She was a little leery of the water, but she had no problem laying and rolling around in the sand. She also had no concept of towel etiquette. She would track sand anywhere she wanted to.
Grace digging in the sand. They had lots fun digging and Grace loved to go in the water. There was a sand bar a ways out, so we would put her life jacket on and take her out there, and then she could stand and jump the waves with us. So much fun.
Jed was also a little leery of the water, but once again, he loved to dig in the sand. Hours spent burying things and finding them again. Sometimes we didn't find them, but it was worth the fun.

That look like so much fun. I can't wait to live near a beach. Even the sand looks good to me. Your kids are the cutest!!
PS We took Rachael on the merry go round tonight. She was scared of it!! We will try again another day!

Wish we lived by a beach on an ocean. I love the smell of the ocean and the sand. What fun!
No towel etiquette...get on it, they need their manners. I wish I could go to a nice warm beach. Lucky you!
