It's a nearly perfect slogan for the boys. Whether it's a sprinkler, bathtub, hose, or pool, they're happy if there's water. Even frozen water - the ice that collects around the backyard in the winter - can keep them busy for hours.
But the best is the water at the beach. We spent the weekend in Myrtle Beach, with Ryan's family. The weather was perfect - low 80s, sunny, no humidity. We walked on the beach at sunrise, did a lot of wave jumping, played mini golf, went to the water park, and had lunches and dinners out together. Here are a couple of the 540 pictures I took in the 2-day trip: Jeremy walking on the beach at sunrise, and Matthew leaping into a rather large wave.
It really was a relaxing weekend. Good thing we did it then, because it looks like summer's last gasp is happening here now. We'll be into the 50s and 60s next week.


I missed out on the beach this summer.... my husband took each kid to the beach (separately), but I stayed home with the other kid (and with work that had to be done) each time. Next summer, we'll go to the beach as a family. Nothing beats the waves and sand and gentle ocean breeze...
