beach day

 when we go to the beach
we bring lots of stuff
everyone has to help


 
 mom look what Nate found
in the ocean
he thought it was a fish bone




 this is what it looks like up close



 the rocks are the most fun




 a little pool
just as fun as the rocks



 another of Nate's finds




 my beach walking buddy
love her singing
and her random
"Mom, I love you"



the "dead body"

yup we took another walk
you'd think the children would get tired of
having their photo taken
 oh wait they do! 




 but swings can be a great motivator








cause I haven't taken 
any of these lately
