Toes in the sand

A few weeks ago we took the boys to the beach. Our first night there, we went for a walk on the beach and to look for crabs. So, here's Anthony's first time in the sand. Even though he only had his feet there for a minute, it was his first steps on the beach!!






The boys played in one of the pools (there were 3!) at the condo on our first afternoon there. Aren't they cute!!



































They also really enjoyed the outdoor hot tub. It was out where the "big" pool was, by the beach. The hot tub was actually big enough for the boys to swim in. Hence, Jackson's goggles.



It rained on Sunday afternoon and we experienced our first true wind storm with wind gusts of 40+ mph, if I remember correctly. And we were outside in it! We'd gone to the grocery store and it hit as were getting back with several bags of groceries and 4 kids to get in through the wind. Boy, that was hard!! It was like you see in the movies where someone leans against the wind and can barely move. No joke! Michael really had a hard time. And, the wind was blowing sand up out of the parking lot and it was stinging our legs, arms and even getting in our eyes. Not a fun time! But, we made it through and went to the pools that afternoon. I think we actually went to all 3 pools that afternoon. LOL Here's a pic of all 5 of my guys in the indoor pool:
