We decided to go to the beach one last time for the summer after church today. I packed a picnic lunch and we headed off. We walked the boardwalk to get to the beach and had lunch and let the kids play on the rocks and they ventured in for a swim. Halle and Arianna went in the water right away. Nick was a little unsure of the temperature but was quickly persuaded when it got quite hot on the sand. They had so much fun! We walked back down the boardwalk for my favorite part of the day- ice cream!! It tasted so good. I figured we deserved it because it's a 5 mile trek there and back. I can't believe we're almost into September already- where does the time go?

Last Beach outing of 2007

What an awesome weekend!
We had such a great weekend. Arianna had a soccer game on Saturday - they won which was nice since they lost last week. She also had a nice surprise because Uncle Duane came to watch her play. She was excited to see him. I've made a realization- she plays better when no one extra is there. She still did good but when people are there to watch her she's very distracted trying to pay attention to them and not the game!!
On Sunday we went to church and then had home groups but then we grabbed lunch and took it out to the beach. What an absolutely beautiful day! The weather was spectacular!
We went for a walk on the boardwalk and walked all the way out to the pier. It was chilly out there but still beautiful! On the way back we let the kids play in the sand. Actually I just wanted to walk in it because boy did I wear the wrong shoes and my feet were absolutely KILLING me! We had to reward ourselves at the end with ice cream- it was so good!!
Here are my favorite pictures- sorry there are so many but I really loved these shots.
1. Arianna
2. Halle
3. Nick
4. No trespassing- you see the 2 naughty ones who don't obey the rules!
5. People windsurfing
6. The kids and me- You know I don't normally post pictures of myself but I had to post this one.Click on the picture to enlarge it. I've always thought Nick looked just like Mark but look at this picture- I really think his face looks like me here! What do you think??

8. The kids in a dune
9. Halle rolling down the dune- look at that face- do you think she's having fun?
10. The kids jumping off the stone- I love that I caught this in motion!
