Sandy Beach...NOOO!

Family day at the beach

Baby Hammer Head Shark

Yeah! He can walk on the sand

We went to the beach a couple of times since it was only 10 minutes away. The kids DID NOT like the beach. But we did make them at least feel the water and touch the sand. Hudson would not move at all. Ella eventually did okay and enjoyed looking for sea shells. They both did a little better when they had their shoes and socks on, but Hudson still didn't want to move.
When we did go out to eat we would pick restaurants that were on the water or on the beach. On our last night we went to a place called Sharky's. After we ate we found out why it is called Sharky's because we saw someone catch a baby hammer head shark. It was too little so he threw it back in the water but both kids liked looking at the shark.

Hi guys! We are debating if our kids are ready for a beach trip or if we should wait a few more years. :)

We still have John's gift. We took Ella's to Hutch but not Johns. We will get it to you. You haven't been forgotten John. :)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
