Springtime at the Beach!

Spring is finally here...the temperature is warm enough to walk around outside without having to wear a jacket...yipee!! We had friends visiting with us this week, so we decided to take them to the beach so we could all walk around and enjoy the beautiful weather.

Not a cloud in the sky!


Here are Zachary and Hannah posing with my friends' two boys...


Hannah and Ryan




Since the tide was out, we found many interesting creatures laying in the sand....




Hannah showing Zachary a pretty shell she found...


Gandalf's staff...well...he pretended it was anyway...


The kids all had so much fun throwing sticks, shells, and rocks back into the ocean!


Now you see it...


Now you don't!


The perils of wearing shoes to the beach...
(I have NO idea why Hannah wore boots, she cracks me up!)


Walking around the tower at the nearby Audubon Center...


Getting ready to head home...Zachary spotted a tree that looked like camouflage. Too funny!


It was so great getting back outside and enjoying a bit of sunshine. With all the rain that we've had lately, we were beginning to wonder if the sun had disappeared! =)

Now...time to get back to reality and get some school work done. Our big history fair is coming up next Friday and we are not ready for it just yet!!
