First trip to the beach for the summer...

We went to the beach for our first trip this summer last Saturday. Our weekends have been so busy that we finally made time go to.





Despite the rain in the forecast, we ventured there, and Lily loved it!





Her first sign of excitement on the way was seeing the "big, big boats" as she calls them. Every time she would see a boat, she would yell "big boat" whether the boat was big or not. She has been fascinated with boats since we went on the boat ride a couple of weeks ago.





Once we got to the beach and as we were unpacking, Lily immediately grabbed her sand bucket and shovel and went to a small area of sand in the parking lot. I had to convince that we were't completely at the beach yet.





We stayed on the beach for about an hour and a half, which is about Lily's max for right now. She had a great time playing in the waves and especially the sand. We left the beach right in time before the thunderstorms and went shopping for the rest of the afternoon.





Here are pictures from the beach:




Here, she is about to drop her Daddy's cell phone in the sand. It survived after the fall.



(Quick note: We also had a good father's day. Lily gave her daddy presents and Bj and I both got to see our dads, and go to church, so it was a good day.)
