On Thursday we took off for a quick couple nights at the beach. I love that we live close enough to the coast that we can go for a short trip. Andrew's been to the beach three times before, but this time he really seemed to enjoy it.
We got there Thursday afternoon, and after dinner at our favorite seafood restaurant, we headed down to play in the sand.
These are the condos we stayed at. I grew up coming to these condos, and other than some updating and remodeling, they're pretty much the same. The memories I have from our summer visits here are priceless, and I hope Andrew's memories are just as fond. (Yes, I know, cheesy and sappy . . . sometimes I can't help myself.)
Explaining to Daddy exactly what he wanted him to build.
Being a ham.
Still being a ham.
Big feet, little feet . . .
Every time a wave would come in and unearth the little clams, Andrew would scream, "Oh no! The creatures !!!" He's kind of a dramatic child. I'm not sure why . . .
We spent Friday morning at the beach before it got too insanely hot.
Around lunchtime, the beach started getting crowded so we headed to the pool (which was blessedly empty) and had a little lunch and swam.
Andrew really does know how to swim. There's a lot of flailing and coughing and splashing, and if you didn't know better you may think it's drowning, but it's swimming . . . I promise.
The view from our balcony was great. So peaceful. There's no place like the beach to help you unwind and relax.
And for your viewing pleasure, here's a video of Andrew playing in the waves.
Yes, there are pictures of me from this trip. No you will never see them since I was in a swimsuit. Some things just don't belong on the Internets if you know what I mean.
It was a great little trip, but now it's back to reality . . . sigh . . .
