Beach time FUN!

On the 3rd day of our Vacation we decided to spend the ENTIRE day at the beach.  It was so much fun.

We got there first thing in the morning and it was a little chilly because there was a mist that was coming off the Ocean.  With it being my first time, I had no idea that this happened, but of course it makes Sense.  I was told that it would start to warm up by noon.  And it DID!

My daring kids went as far out in the Ocean as they could, which scared me a bit but after a while I was fine.  I was so Scared that they would be swept away.  Shelby and Dakota went out the farthest which is a surprise with Dakota because a few years back he almost drowned because he didn't know how to swim and he took off his tube he had around him so he could be "like the big girls".  Hopefully this year he will learn how to swim and won't be so scared or tense when we teach him, or attempt to teach him.

We had fun playing in the Ocean, making an AWESOME sand castle with a moat, being buried in the sand, and just spending a much needed fun family time together with NOTHING to worry about back at home.  We put all that behind us.  

I am SO GLAD that I got to make these AMAZING MEMORIES with my Kids!  I can't wait to make more!  Me and Chad decided that every year with our tax return (depending on the amount) we will do a vacation but only do a "big" vacation every couple of years and then just a short fun trip close by every other year.  So we will at least do something fun every year.  Even if it's just a short camping trip, or whatever we may come up with.  One year we will probably go to Disneyland, but I want to wait a while longer so ALL my kids could go on the same rides.  It will be so much funner that way!

I can't wait to go to the Beach again!  It was better than I imagined.  I am glad I got to mark that off my list of things I want to do that I haven't yet..... Flying in an airplane will probably be a LONG time for that, since I am TERRIFIED of heights (thanks Dad!).  There is NOTHING better than making Lasting Memories with your kids!  Love them all so Much and proud to be their Mother!

LOVE YOU Shelby, Dakota, Savanah, Dallas, and Samantha!

You make my days Brighter Everyday!

Now enjoy some of our pictures we took.....
