Beach and Birthday Photos

We're back! We had a great week at the beach with my family. The weather was nice - only a touch of rain and not too hot.

To start off, here are a few pictures of water and sand -

Caitlyn and Chad were digging for treasure, but Eliza decided to sit in their hole to help.

We took all the kids to the aquarium one morning. We took the ferry over and back, and the girls enjoyed the boat ride.

It was just a little bit windy. Can you tell?
