So...as I stated before...
My aunt and uncle live in North Port, FL and we go to Siesta Key beach while we are visiting them. Beautiful white sand that doesn't get hot and isn't gritty. (It's still sand, and I still hate it, but it is better than most.)
(And if I was going to have something thrown at me, I'd be hoping for SANDballs... Don't worry, he didn't throw them.)
Selah, looking cool on the beach.
Needed a quick drink before heading out into that sun...I don't do bottles- those are for BABIES!

And my "sugar-coated" toes.
He liked playing in the sand much more.
(Like a little old lady, peering over those sunglasses.)

Daddy and Jonah, working hard on their sandcastles.
Apparently the sunglasses were just too inconvenient.
Hmmm, what's in this bucket?
Pretty cool handle...
And there is a spout...
But what's this inside?
Yep, more sand.
This tag is more my style.
It's got numbers, lines AND letters on it...
Gee what a disappointment. Everything around here seems to taste like sand!
(And hopefully someday I can just relax and watch them and not have to keep saying "no" and trying to dig sand, shells and little crabs out of the mouth of my youngest. One can hope...)
Hmmm, what's this in here?
Can't seem to get away from this stuff!
More playing, Selah is IN the boat.
But she realizes that the boat can't save her from the sand, it's covered, too!
Here, let me show you...
OOOPS! Did I do that?
I didn't mean to wreck it, I'll just go see how Jonah is doing...

It needs a flag on top...
Sorry about that!
I think I'll go check on Daddy's sandcastle....
WOW, Dad! That's awesome!!
I love it so much, I think I will give it a hug!
Gasp! There's another one!! Don't want it to feel left out!
(I kid you not, she destroyed all of these sandcastles, ON HER OWN, in about 2 1/2 minutes. Both of the boys were pretty upset, but when they yelled at her, she just crawled away and found another!)
Well, now that I have wrecked all of the sandcastles, I will go see what Noah has moved onto....
Sure, Noah, I can get you the duck!
I wonder what is in this box!
Well...
Now how do I get in there?
My arms are just not long enough...
