A Day at the Beach

8-1

Our friends Kristen & Brian stay at a condo on Indian Shores Beach every year and have invited the rest of 'The Posse' the past couple years to come spend a day with them. We've been rained on 2 years in a row now, but still manage to have a good time.

certainly not the best view of me, but since I'm rarely in pics, I liked these of me and the boys

The sky around us started to get pretty black. We looked over and spotted a waterspout! Never seen one in person before- kind of scary, but I'm sure way scarier for the people in that sailboat! You should have seen how fast they started moving!

That's when we decided it was time to head in and get some lunch. The kids (all 12 of them) had a 'picnic' on the balcony.

After lunch the skies cleared up some. It was still raining, but we were determined to spend some time on the beach after making the trip over there!

Brian played some baseball with the boys.

I think this picture is hilarious-

why are they all running in opposite directions?! :)

Overall, we have a great time in spite of the rain. At least it didn't end like last year!
Last year Connor didn't want to leave the beach and threw a huge tantrum, threw himself down in the sand and was rolling all around. We call this the 'sand crab'. :)

Thanks again, Kristen & Brian for inviting us out. We're looking forward to next year!
