More Beach Times

We made another trip to the beach last week with our little family and my brother, Logan.  Although Logan is not so much of a beach bum (a direct quote might have been, "I hate the beach."), but he's a lot of fun to have around and was a great sport.

Part of what makes Logan fun, is that he'll tackle projects that us parentals are too tire to attempt.  Like this giant hole in the sand.

Here is the hole in its early stages.  Even at this point its fun for the kids.   

 Elise loves being in the waves.  The waves weren't too strong when we first got there and we had fun playing in them.

You can see, the hole is getting bigger.  And its still fun. :)
And that face.  I love it. :)


 And even deeper.  He dug down until he hit water. :)

 Love this boy. :)

Why is snacking at the beach so much fun? :)



 More fun with Logan's hard work.  It was quite impressive.

And then the tide came in and washed away much of Logan's work.  But it still left a fun little swimming pool for the kids to play in.  Which was just as fun.


 Later in the day the waves got stronger and stronger.  After a while, they were just too powerful to be fun.  So we spent the rest of the afternoon on the shore and in the shallow water.

 Super Kids.

 You gotta watch out for Logan. :)

 Ian skipped sea shells in one of the pools the tide left behind.

 My Love. <3


 A bird and the waves.  It is just so beautiful!


 Cuteness. :)

 Oh My. :)


 Ian scooted his head around in this little tide pool like vacuum cleaner.  What an imagination. :)


My favorite little brother named Logan. :)  

I think the hot weather is getting to us all, but after another perfect day at the beach, I'm definitely not ready to say good-bye to summer just yet.

The beach is so nice, and looks like you had a wonderful day! Makes me want to live near the water. :)
