A Windy Day at the Beach

My morning started early at 5:30am! Addison had soaked her bed. So I washed her up and brought her up to bed with me...but she was NOT going to go back to bed.

We caught up on some laundry this morning before heading to the beach...it was a beautiful sunny day! Addison was my little laundry helper...sort of.We went to Pyramid Rock Beach on the base....it was sunny, but, do I dare say it...the wind was a little chilly! Trevor is always so good about getting a quick start on his sand castle building...
McKenzie brought her friend Tiani along, and they decided to dig a huge hole...
Addison was smart and spent the first part of the day in the tent..which, due to the wind, was mostly 'bent' to the side. Luckily for her, the tent has pockets on the sides that you fill with sand to prevent the tent from 'taking flight'. The screened sides prevent the sand from getting in.
After a while, Addison got brave and ventured out of the tent and we went for a walk in the sand.
Addi loved the water. She waited for the waves to sneak up on her little toes...
And she just grinned from ear to ear when they splashed up her legs...
When they went back down, she would try to run in after them...
Then she tried her hand at sand castles....
We were at the beach for just under 2 hours...the wind was just too much. We'll have plenty of other opportunities to be beach bums. So we ended our outing with vanilla cones from McDonalds for the kids!

No word from Nick today.
