A day at the beach with grandparents and cousins

It seems like when the weather gets nice, we head to the beach, even though it is much different than the beaches in California or Florida. There is usually so much to do and find on the beach. The big thing during this trip was crabs. Sophia, who is 2, loved finding the crabs with Noah and pappa. Sophia is sure a cutie!








The two of them usually get in some kind of trouble when they are together. This was towards the end of the day when they had both had enough and needed a rest.










The great thing about having boys is that there are built in bathrooms around every tree. Jonah never hesitates to take advantage of peeing in the outdoors. There is something about doing this in the outdoors that is freeing. I can't explain this to Rebecca, so I have stopped trying. Jonah has graduated from dropping his drawers to the ground to peeing like an adult now.












Here is one of the many crabs that Sophia found with Noah during the day. They roped Pappa in and he was the one turning over all of the rocks.











I think pappa's back was done for by the end of the day. He sure had a captive audience though. They could have done this for hours.











We were also able to fit in a game of baseball and soccer with all of the adults. It was fun to see everyone out there making fools of themselves. All of us adults don't think we have aged so we run our hardest and then have to crawl to the cooler for something to drink after ten minutes. We are all wimps compared to the kids.







No one can really squat like kids can. It was a fun day, and like always, they were so tired on the way home.
