Beaches are for sunshine and warm breezes and cool drinks and playing in the water…and sunshine. But, when God sees fit to water his creation, there’s still lots of fun to be had.
First thing…sit in the only spot of sun on the porch and watch as the clouds roll in…
Ask your Mom to go get doughnuts for breakfast…cause doughnuts can make any disappointment so much easier to bear!
While you wait for your Mom and your Lulu to get ready…why not rearrange the toy shelf? Everything out…and everything back in again. But better suited to my liking! Good job, Levi!
Mom… Where would you like to go?
Levi...Wal Mart! Wal Mart!
Mom…But we are not buying any toys…
Levi…I just want to look and see all the things they have in there!
Mom…OK…here we go!
Lulu...Oh, My! Wal Mart? Really?
Thank goodness for umbrellas!
First we look at all the toys…ALL the toys. Then we find a cooler for our lemonade stand (Coming soon).
Lulu...I need some keys!
And, so we get an up close and personal lesson in key making!
5 keys later..we set off to find something else interesting…Look at this! A bicycle just for Lulu!
Here and there we go…all over the store. Suzanne found a great way to keep Levi under control!
Levi and I decide we need some white cheddar popcorn and chocolate chip cookies…you know…rainy day food!
So, we check out and head to the car…popcorn, cookies, m&m’s, and cooler in tow!
Levi...Look! It’s not raining now!
Suzanne…I think it’s time for a smoothie!
Levi...I think it’s time for McDonald’s.
And, so we go to both. Suze and I have a smoothie and Levi has a Happy Meal!
We stopped at the paint store and Suzanne did a little touch up painting in the house! Thanks, Suze!
Back to the Sandcastle to wait for Pa and Uncle Ian…they are dropping in to spend the night on the way to Las Vegas. Pa likes to fly out of PCB.
And, once we visit a few minutes…it’s off to Boondocks for a great meal! Levi managed to get Pa’s hat from him and proceeded to wear it all night! Levi and Uncle Ian having too much fun!
Levi and Pa and Uncle Ian decide to stop at Pier Park and let Levi ride some of the fun rides there…but Suze and Lulu sit it out in the car. We’ve had a busy day. We get tired…but Levi never does!
To tie up the night, we stop for ice cream and sno cones! YUMMY!
Up the next morning, we wash sheets and towels, tidy up, and hurry home for an important meeting .
BACK UP A DAY…
A few pics from our first day. First we went to the Frank Brown Water Park and soaked up lots of sun and fun! The day was perfect! Not too hot…cool breeze…a little cloudy. Just like we ordered.
After a quick shower back at the Sandcastle, we set out on a search for supper. Every place was crowded. Somehow…and I’m still not sure how…we ended up at a little local place. There was live music, folks dancing and having a ball! There was even a pool the kids could swim in during dinner! We sat outside…and laughed and laughed and laughed! We decided that even though the place was not crowded…and we had to wait over an hour for our food…we’d make the best of it and enjoy being together! And, we did! When we finally got out food…it was delicious!
And, since no one likes to go to bed on time at the beach…Suze and Levi took a few spins on the go-carts. Me? I was safer just watching from the sidelines!
Sweet fun on a quick 45 hours at the beach! A huge amount of fun in a short amount of time! Hey…you just gotta cram that fun in in the time you have! And, we did!
See you soon, Sancastle!
Hello, my name is Everly. I am a blogger living in New York. This is my blog, where I post about interior design and decoration. Never miss out on new stuff.
Yes you did! The pictures are fantastic, but my favorites are of you and that sweet boy together.
So the guys went to Vegas? Jeremy is there this week for Market – where furniture companies and stores go to see the latest of everything and place their orders. (I think that's what it is, hahaha! What would I know?)
