A Sunday Afternoon Walk at the Beach
Yesterday we decided to have dinner early, and then head to the beach and just walk around a little bit. The idea was to stay clear of the water since it was Sunday, but unfortunately nobody notified the great big surprise wave of this fact. As we were walking along the edge of the water, a huge wave came and actually knocked Elise down. She was quite upset - she doesn't even deal very well with things spilling on her, so she thought this was a disaster. However, we stripped her down, put my sweatshirt on her, and were able to convince her that it would be okay to continue on our walk. She had a great time collecting shells, and we saw a ton of dolphins swimming in the waves just right off the edge of the beach. Steven, however, was not a fan of the sand at all, so Chris or I had to carry him the entire time. It was kind of a nice little sunday afternoon activity though, and we all had a good time.

Oh how I wish that we lived near the beach! I love the pictures and I LOVE Elise's apron skirt. You made that didn't you?
Thank you, thank you Kara. They are wonderful pictures. And the look on Stevens face when Chris is trying to put him down on the sand. Didn't Elise hate the sand also when she was younger? And as for writting down Elise's conversation, you just have to sacrifice your life to record them. She does say some incredible things
I love the beach pictures! It would probably really help Ally with textures if we had a beach! We went to a park last weekend that had a beach volleyball pit and she wouldn't touch the sand! (yes, I know it isn't REAL sand! but still!). Great pictures!
