We surprised the kids with a trip to the beach this morning. Lovebug didn't really get it, but Angel sure did! She asked us if we were "teasing" her and kept laughing. I even had to show her that the car was packed and ready to go - then she knew. LOL. She was MORE than excited. We took a leisurely drive down and got there late-afternoon/early-evening. We headed straight to the beach just about as soon as we got there.
Angel, of course, knew exactly what to do and was on Cloud 9. It was so awesome to see her this happy.
I mean, seriously ... LOOK at that face!! LOL. She was in heaven. It's amazing what a simple surprise trip to the beach can do to a child.
Lovebug, on the other hand, was not that excited. He didn't want to have much to do with the cold water.
But as you can see, his frown got turned upside down pretty darn quickly!
Lovebug was doing really well until we got hit with a really big wave. After that he was kind of afraid to let go of me but he did GREAT considering he isn't old enough to remember our last trip. Actually he probably didn't get in the water then anyway.
I took this one to show the sand all over Angel's back. It was pretty much everywhere (yes, I mean EVERYWHERE). She was practically rolling in the sand.
One last snap to finish out the night - Angel the Frog, sitting on the lifeguard chair :-)
We went to grab dinner after this and then put the kids early (which was actually on time at about 8pm) because they didn't have a nap on the way down. Are my kids the only ones that don't sleep in cars?
