Sun, Sand, Surf!

















Guess you know by now that I am a true blue,
bonafied, 100% through and through beach bum!!
There is just something about the beach...the warm
salt air, the sand between your toes, the waves greeting
the shore with a roar, people chillin' out and enjoying
a beautiful day, adorable little sandpipers trotting
around in search of a snack...
Aaaahhh...life is just so much better after a day at the
beach. Here's a little scenery from our day!!
I can't get enough of these little guys!!

This guy is out here everytime we go to the beach.
He stands on this surfboard-like thingy and paddles
around beyond where the waves break. He must love
it!!


















Kristina (left) and Maddy boogie boarding!! Normally
I am out there with them, but believe it or not the
water is a mere 70 degrees. A tad chilly to be in it for
too long!! Not for them of course!















Our grandy Emily having buckets of fun!!

















Life just doesn't get any better than lunch
at the beach! A PBJ break for Em as she
munches and watches the other girls




















I LOVE photos of little
children from the back, and
couldn't resist snapping this one.
Too cute, huh?
Gotta love that hat!!



Hope your weekend is just BEACHY!!


Feel free to grab the Life's A Beach graphic

you!!
Love ya'll,

A Great Day at the Beach!!

Our last trip to the beach was so delightful!!


Just look at this little fellow!!
We don't get a whole lot of these
but I LOVE watching them!!
He would try to outrun the waves coming in!!
Too cute!!


As you can see it was a beautiful day.
It was a bit windy, and there were bigger
waves than normal so we didn't venture into
the water

Little Miss Emily loves the beach as much or
more than I do!!


It's so great to "see life" through her eyes!!

It reminds me constantly to find JOY in the
little things!!


The clouds started to roll in, and it got a little
too cool with the wind coming across the water

I mean the water temp is still in the high 60's!!


Emily started feeding the seagulls so of course
I had to get a few pics!! They are really pretty
birds!!


And what fun it was to look down the beach
and see a beautiful bride getting pictures taken
on the shore. Click photo to see her better!!
She was holding her dress and twirling and posing.
Remember the elation you felt on your wedding day??
It just brought back all of mine and made my day!!

THEN, on the way out, we drove past a hotel and
there she was out front!!

We HONKED several times and all waved to her,
and she jumped with delight waving to us
with a big smile on her face!!

Such a fun day!!

OH!! And my header picture...
it was shot the same day.

As any good Nana would, I made a public
spectacle of myself by whirling around in circles
chasing Emily with the camera.

I was sure I didn't get any decent shots...
I WAS SO WRONG!!

Blessings to you Sweeties!!
Have a glorious weekend!!
I'm heading out to do some planting!!
