what passes for a beach in northern ny :)

Saturday, August 15, 2009

Today we just had to get out of the house, so just the kids and I went to the pond here on post that has a little beach. The kids did SO good that we were there for hours and hours. Gabe can officially swim under water, Shiloh was a little too fearless, lol, and Kaleb was a great helper, and I couldn't have asked for better behavior. It was just what I needed, a day with just the kids where we thoroughly enjoyed each other.

There aren't any pics of Shiloh in the water, not because she didn't go, but because every time she was in the water, so was I!


On her way to swim!

A little tired

She had to get used to walking on the warm sand in her bare feet, she walked very gingerly for a while, pretty funny


Gabe/fish



Playing "shark"




About to cannon ball!





Swimming hard






We also worked pretty hard on sand castles, moats, and dams.


















ALSO....today is the 7 year anniversary of when Tyrone and I started dating! I love him soooo much and am just on pins and needles for him to get home! (But we still have 2 weeks....)

HOW SUPER TO PLAN THOSE KIND OF "DAYS OUT". KNOW THE WATER IS GREAT FUN AND EXERCISE FOR ALL OF THE KIDS. HOPE YOU TAKE A PICNIC SO YOU CAN EVEN FEED THEM THERE AND BE READY TO JUST HAVE BATHS AND RELAX WHEN YOU GET HOME-----I REMEMBER DOING THAT SO MANY YEARS AGO WITH YOUR MOM AND AUNT. PRAYING FOR YOU.
