august twenty: just beachy

the beach, the beach.
we were going to the beach.

(now you know that we didn't make her ride in the car like this, right?)

with friends!


even Annabelle had EchoEcho this time to pal around with.

so we dug


and drifted


and discovered




and worked together


and played together


and worked alone



and played alone




and chased


and read


and lazed in the sun


and lazed in the shade

and made up games

and ran

and splashed


and hollered...

and didn't come home 'til dark.


an' it was good enough.

  2. It looks like the safest way to ride in the car! The hills in the back ground look lovely. Hope you all didn't get too burnt. My back still hurts from last weeks beach crusade.
    Love Melissa

  7. You inspired me to check the weather report for one last hot day to make it to the beach. I found disappointing news. Thus, annakiss is really really angry at the weather forecast. She wanted another day for going to the beach, but not Tuesday. Not Tuesday! Why must it be 84 only on Tuesday!?!?

    le sigh.
