We spent most of our days on the beach -- snacking, building and knocking down sand castles and drip castles, continuing our education in sharing, jumping the waves, lining beach toys up, digging holes, chasing seagulls, watching for airplanes, dolphins and beach jeeps, and running the dog (OK, mom only ran poor V once). We hit up Brigantine's annual Family Fun Day and this year I was even big enough for my first pony ride. Kane was an old pro at the ponies and railroad, but got an extra special extended tour of the firetrucks from one of daddy's childhood friends. We played in Nona's yard in the mornings (while mommy and daddy got to "sleep in") and the few times it was a little too yucky to beach it -- bubbles, chalk, screamer balloons. You name it, we did it. We also got to go to lots of places around town, so watch for additional posts.
We are glad to be back home, but we'll be headed back for a late Summer trip (seeing that daddy's travel schedule is picking up, I think mommy prefers to brave a few hours by herself in the car with us than 24/7 for another whole week!). And next time we'll hit up the Marine Mammal Stranding Center, which we've always wanted to check out.
If you're ever in the Brig, make sure to stop by Mad Dog Morgan's for some grub -- they have great, reasonable breakfast and super cute packed-up beach lunches (they put kids lunches in a sand pail with a shovel). And they're family friends!
We will survive!
Life's a beach.
Fun for the whole family.
Mom took us on a walk pantless and "in bare feetsies" (us, not mom) to do some random chalking of the 'hood.
