We don't go to the beach enough...the waves are so calming, the kids can play for hours on end, and the sunsets are so amazing! We were so thankful to be able to get away for a weekend at the beach with some friends these past 3 days. We started the weekend with cloudy, windy cold weather, then it turned to heavy rain, but the last day was full of sunshine and 60 degrees!
Just diggin'.
Rock hunting!
Headin' down for sunset the first night. Unfortunately, we didn't actually see the sun set. But we did see a bunch of pelicans diving in the water for their dinner!
I love walking on the beach!
After attempting to play on the beach between showers Sunday morning, but then getting drenched by a sudden downpour, we decided to go somewhere indoors. The Seymour Learning Center just north of Natural Bridges State Park proved a very fun outing!
Lots of starfish, sea cucumbers, hermit crabs, kelp and more!
The Learning Center has
the largest assembled and displayed whale skeleton in the world!
Monday was a gorgeous day with abundant sunshine! We spent almost 5 hours on the beach before packing up to head home!
The kids worked together to dig a huge pit,
a sand castle/kingdom,
and a fort of driftwood.
And, even though the water was freezing, the kids went in!
Violet and Jackson took a while to muster up enough courage to get in the waves. But once they did, they couldn't laugh harder or smile bigger!
What a great weekend!
