Beach Vacation- Tuesday, June 12

Tuesday also predicted rain, but again the clouds moved away and the sun came out. The boys dubbed this shell-finding and hole-digging day. Not officially, of course, boys don't do that. But that's what happened all day.

 the search for shells begins...Daniel instructed not to get 

any broken ones, but we did end up with several

 I asked him to smile for me...

Then Rob & Kyle started to dig. We have some pretty good shovels in our beach toy collection so it's only natural for boys to find use for them. Daniel, on the other hand, decided to dig a hole with his hands while laying on his beach chair.

 Rob said they found shells in their hole to which Daniel replied, "I found a Chinese guy in mine." Will found this comment very funny. Well, we all did.

Moosie seemed to enjoy the beach much better with a towel under her feet

 During lunch, someone covered up Daniel's death trap of a hole so he joined in with the other hole diggers. Here he's working on stairs

We also took our first evening stroll on the beach.

 Maggie found her first shell

pay close attention to Will's face...hilarious

 Maggie likes the sand & the water now...

 One of my favorite pics from the trip. I enlarged this photo and Maggie gave it to Daniel for Father's Day
