The Beach

We just returned home from a week at the beach. The girls had a great time! Both really enjoyed the sand and the water!

Andrea was all over the place. She loved to dig and make castles in the sand and also asked to go into the water with us several times. She still doesn't like to have the water splash her face. Andrea got a little bit of sun mostly on her legs and her freckles are great. She is truly a beach babe!

Ahleah was very hesitant on our first day. She would not even let me set her down. Thanks to the help of her pappy and some soda she slowly began to walk in the sand. Then she began to follow me in the sand and wander into the water. By Friday she was running all over the place from the water to under the umbrella. She seems to have no fear of anything and we really have to keep our eyes on her. She does not like to touch sand. It is really comical to watch her stand up without touching the sand.

My niece Kyla was also at the beach for 1/2 of the week and she is a beach pro. She loves all parts of the sand and water. She digs and plays like it is her passion. I think she gets this from her mom my sister in law Jessica. Who has declared that she wishes she was a mermaid and would love to spent more time at the beach. My brother Dave claims he does not like the beach but really seems to enjoy himself once there.

While in Ocean City we also travel to Assategue Island. We all loved it there. The sand was soft and the beach was very flat. Both of the girls really enjoyed the sand and the water there. The waves were a little rougher but overall the beach was nicer and easier for the girls to play on. We also saw several wild horses on the island. Not on the beach but there were three walking on the road when we arrived on Thursday and also several in the distance on both Tuesday and Thursday. The horses were very beautiful and Andrea loved seeing them as did Chris and I. We would love to visit the island again we all had tons on fun there.

I know that I am forgetting several details that I should include in this blog but it is late so this one is....TO BE CONTINUED
