Beach Bums

Every year, the kids say that they may not go in the ocean because they are afraid of sharks, jelly fish, crabs,etc. This year Discovery Channel had "Shark Week" the same week we were leaving on vacation. Trent was convinced he wasn't going in any deeper than his knees. It takes them about two minutes after we hit the sand to put their fears aside. The call of the waves always wins out. Once again, we had so much fun boogie boarding all week long. The kids are so brave. Even Riley got in on the action this year. She wanted to go out as far as her brothers. By the end of the week, she was almost too brave. She didn't want anyone to hold on to her board because the waves would carry her even further when we were not holding on. When not on their boogie boards, the kids also like to play in the sand. So glad they like the beach as much as their mom. Great times and great memories for us all.
