Scott didn't have to work on Saturday this 4th of July weekend, so we headed to the beach in the afternoon. It was hot and windy and there were a lot of people there but we still had fun. Anna's checking out the scene.
We dug a big sandcastle (hole) and had a lot of fun. Here comes Anna with her tools. Both kids were conflicted about whether they would rather swim or dig in the sand and kept running back and forth between activities.
Here they are coming back after washing off their hands.
Matthew was having fun!
Anna loved being in the water and floating with her floaty ring. She wanted me to go away so she could float on her own. I didn't, of course, and she learned to live with it. Anna also had more fun than our last swimming outing 'cause I got tear free sunblock. No more stinging eyes! Hooray!
The kids didn't even cry and run away from me when we had to leave. Matthew was sure to tell me on the way to the car that he was being good and obeying me this time. I think he wants points for being good.
For dinner we made sliders. They turned out good!
And were just the right size for Matthew and Anna to eat. Happy Fourth everyone!
