A Day at the Beach

We've lived at the beach for almost three weeks, but I have only been to the beach once. There is definitely something wrong with that, so I made sure to correct the situation. I wasn't sure how things were going to work out once we got to the beach considering there is only one me with two crazy kids to watch. Nathan loves the water and braving the big waves, but Kathryn prefers playing in the sand. Somehow I managed to make it work and everyone had a good time. Such a good time that we're going back tomorrow and probably again the next day and every other day after that until we PCS again.
Nathan tried getting Kathryn to join him in jumping in the waves. He is a totally different kid from the last beach trip. He didn't want to go out in the water unless someone was holding him, today I had to keep calling him back in because he was going out too far.
Kathryn didn't want to have anything to do with jumping in the waves, but you can see Nathan trying to pull her back out. It worked out though because the little girl to the right of Nathan in the distance liked splashing around in the waves. They ended up playing together and Kathryn played in the sand with the little girl to her left.
As soon as I finish this post I'm going to go out and vacuum the sand out of my car. It's bad.
The best part of the day was coming home and putting this wild child down for a good, long nap!
