A New Beach to Explore

Over Spring Break we found a new beach to explore.  Nice and quiet, shallow water, great sand, nice trees for shade, no salt and only 20 minutes away made for a great beach trip.  We still like jumping waves, but this little beach will be a great summer hang out.  The men took the day off of work (which was awesome since Zane had worked a lot of hours that week) and we enjoyed the day with my extended family.
Naturally dunking started right away.

 Exploring the bottom of the river

Swinging with Grandpa

Chillin with Grandma

Getting ready to throw Grandpa in (he thought we would just be wading in the water and didn't bring his swimming suit.) He didn't stay dry for very long.

Playing with Dallin

 Lining up for the race.  Dallin and Caleb were trying to run so fast so that they could run on top of the water like the Basilisk lizard.

 Not quite fast enough

 Throwing Dallin in

The Hulk took down a bumble bee.  I wish I got this on video because it was hilarious.  Gavin picked up a bumble bee (probably dead because he didn't get stung) and took it down. The bee had no chance.

 Eating the sand?

Gavin really loves sand.  His hair does not love sand which means mommy doesn't like sand.

Grandma stayed dry so she took care of these two.  Bryson is a month older than Lili.

Starting the sand city.  It was pretty awesome when it was all done.

It was kind of chilly in the shade.  I didn't mind little kids who stopped playing long enough to cuddle with mommy.

Burying the little boys.

We will definitely be heading back to this little beach soon!

Oh I love the one of Grandpa with the four boys! Sad we missed this.
