First Day at the Beach

The best part about driving straight through on Friday was that we had the whole day on Saturday to play...we went down to the beach after breakfast. It was such a gorgeous day!

There was an awesome sandbar about 15 feet out which the kids really enjoyed exploring. 

And it made for nice calm water inland of the sandbar...not that it was windy today. 

Checking out the waves!

The little snails we found burrowing into the sand of the sandbar. 

Katelyn was enthralled with building "sand castles"...really just packing sand into sand castle molds, but she was having fun.  :)

Snack time...as always...not sure we were down there 30 minutes and they were ready to eat something.  :)

Bobby wasn't so sure about the sand on his toes...he did much better in the water/waves.  Poor little guy!
