Beach Boys

  Last Saturday we had the best beach day yet!!!! 

  We went to Pensacola Beach which is 20 minutes away (it is our favorite so far)!  We left just after Owen's morning nap, arriving there before noon.



  Hayden immediately heads for the water. 

With a moment of pause, Logan tries to remember if he likes the water or is afraid. 


  He cautiously walks towards the ocean, jumps over the first ribbon of white bubbles which dances towards his toes and a huge smile takes over his face. 

For the next 45 minutes Logan flirts with the waves that slap the shore, either racing water's edge into the sand or jumping over them.  All the while, he sings, " I love it! I want to stay here all day!"

 Owen is peaceful as he investigates the sand and is happy to play in the water.  At one point, Ryan and Hayden went out quite a ways from the shore.  They were far enough that the waves didn't break yet and Hayden loved how he'd effortlessly float over these small hills of water. 
During Owen's nap, Ryan walked up to one of the resturants and brought back a lemonade for the boys and a strawberry daquiri for us!  Before leaving, we grabbed some ice cream on the dock and piled into the van blissfully tired. What a mini-vacation
LOVE our new towels!  Thanks Aunt Allison!!!!
