CAMP BULLDOG - Beach Trip!

While visiting my parents, we HAD to go to the beach.
Something we ALL LOVE to do!!
Of course, with 4 kids,... it was quite an adventure!
Never a dull moment!

When we first got there, it was important to set up shade.
Of course, with the wind whipping around, it wasn't easy (keep in mind, this was a brand new tent - NEVER been set up before & we had to rip off the annoying mosquito netting!)

After 30-40 minutes, we had success!!

The kids piggies!

So,... we decided to take a walk down the beach. Cylas was kind of straggling behind, and I was walking beside him, but was too busy looking for shells. I wasn't really paying attention to what he was doing. Finally,... I looked down and realized that during our walk, he was making a "path" with his toes... the WHOLE walk! If you look at the picture to the left, you can actually see how far the path goes back! VERY FUNNY!

The kids LOVE to chase birds!

It was SO hot, luckily there was an ice cream shop close by. Big Daddy brought us all some frozen treats to cool us off!

Then, a nasty rain cloud looked like it was heading STRAIGHT our way. We started to pack up!

Then, it suddenly disappeared and a beautiful rainbow appeared!

We flew kites - THANKS Daisy!

Cylas even flew his kite in the water!

Cooper spent a lot of time on the boogie board.
I think he must have been digging sand out of his... business!

You probably can't tell, but in this picture is a BEAUTIFUL city with lots of ponds!

Taking a break to enjoy some lunch - sausage on a stick, chips, & cheese!

Cortheye wanted to be covered in mud!!
She thought it was HILARIOUS!

Cylas would only get his hands muddy!

Cooper too!

Wonder what they are talking about?

Awww... sweet pic!
