We managed a day off on Friday and decided to go to Newport Beach (mainly because Grandma needed a ride there.) We didn't pack much, just a beach towel and extra clothes, but came back with lots more.
Firstborn collected sea shells (he's not too picky, any ol' seashell will do). In this picture, he's burying the plastic monkey ninjas he got in his kids' meal. Wonder Boy ran around, mimicking brother in picking up shells and finally showing off an intact mussel shell with pride.
The boys all ran to the surf, and spent most of the time running away from the waves or throwing sand into the water (which explains why their heads had the most sand at the end of the day.) Hubby shepherded the boys in the shore while I prepared our feast: from Jack in the Box. But any hot day I don't have to cook is a good day, so we enjoyed our chicken nuggets, burgers and fries.
I gave thanks for the time to just sit on the sand, watch my boys play, watch Hubby hang with them, look at the people around us, breathe in the air, stare at the clouds and later, watch the sun set. Didn't worry too much about anything at that beach.
Stuff of life.
More, please. And thank you.
