We met BB and Granddaddy at the beach for a few days and had an amazing time.
BB bought the girls this beautiful princess kite. Laurie wanted to fly it immediately. She ran up the beach with it for about 1 minute, then turned to Daddy and said, "It's too hot, you do it." So, of course he did. Having a really nice breeze was great for kite flying.
Our current parenting style is something of man on man defense (I do realize that will change in a few months). As Laurie prefers Will and Anna Fair me, we generally split up that way. And it works out great for Momma. Daddy is chasing kites, jumping waves and looking for seashells 2 miles down the beach with Laurie. I get to sit on the lounge under an umbrella and watch Anna Fair at my feet making sand angels, sand castles and eat snacks. It's a hard job.
We caught about 20 minnows with our nets. It was really fun to watch them swim around our bucket.
We love to hunt for crabs in the dark. The kids crack me up squealing and chasing them. Anna Fair wouldn't touch one if her life depended on it, but Laurie was doing pretty well catching them. Then, BB yelled that one pinched her. Laurie refused to do it again after that. I am pretty sure Will won't ever forgive BB for that.
Early morning snuggles.
They keep the lobby and elevator of the condo pretty freezing cold. To keep the kids from moaning and wailing over the cold, we bribe that they can hop in the balcony hot tub as soon as we get back to the room. It keeps them occupied for a great quiet time for Mom and Dad too.
