So today was another gorgeous day on the beach. We spent most of the day on the sand and in the water, which makes me a VERY happy person.
The kids built a HUGE sand castle. They used the bucket that we have for the beach toys as the foundation. Of course they did not realize how heavy it would be so Brandon had to tump it over for them.
The hole and river that they have been working on since Sunday actually had some water in it. The tide came in pretty high and helped them make some serious progress.
The waves were pretty big, some of the biggest I have ever seen at Fort Morgan. This was ideal for some serious boogie boarding. The boys and this means even the big ones had fun playing with the boogie boards.
We decided to go out to eat. We went to the Shrimp Basket for some seafood, which is another plus for the beach. While you can eat seafood at several places at home it is NEVER as good as it is on the beach. Brandon had fried shrimp, fish, and stuffed crabs. I had grilled fish and shrimp. Danny had popcorn shrimp. John Michael had chicken fingers. He did not want Shrimp or fish. Silly boy!
After dinner we were going to the Trak to let the boys ride go carts, but it started lightening so they shut it down. This also meant Putt-putt was shut down. Go figure every year we try to go to do something like that the rain and storms roll in. What can you do though.
We decided to go for ice cream. We went to Scoops, which is really the best Ice cream EVER. Brandon and I had a sundae. Mine was pretty traditional, just minus nuts. Brandon's was with mint chocolate chip ice cream. Danny had a waffle cone with mint chocolate chip. John Michael had one of the double cones and got mint chocolate chip and bubble gum, what he really had was a HUGE mess.
Well, we got home later than I thought and I was exhausted so I did not blog, but I am caught up now. I hope that everyone made a memory!
