Today was the big day we've been waiting for -- the first weekday of the season for our beloved local beach! So of course, we were there! Our summer plan is basically spend as much time as possible here. It was a great first day too -- just hot enough to make you think you really needed to be in the water.
The boys plunged right into the lake as soon as we hit the beach (they're the two with the blue float vests on). They had a great time splashing around with other kids (and at times parents). I brought a book along to keep myself occupied (one of my plans for all this beach time is to plan our fall homeschooling adventures), but I was having too much fun watching them to get anything read.
After an hour in the water, J decided to come ashore, get dressed, and build himself a sand castle.
Meanwhile, Zoo Boy busied himself doing....what only Zoo Boy knows. He spent a lot of the time running around with a pig-shaped shovel singing some song he made up that started with nonsense words and ended with pig noises. You know, the typical stuff kids do at the beach....
Two very happy boys on the beach. It was a great afternoon, the first of many to come over the next couple of months!Zoo Boy says he thinks we should try something from the icecream truck tomorrow. Sounds like a plan to me!

What a great way to spend the Summer! I wish we had a beach close enough to make it a weekday adventure! Have Fun!
Oh that looks like fun!
