We just got back from the Cape, all relaxed and tanned.
We really could not have asked for better weather. We were able to hit the beach every day, and the girls have turned into regular beach bums. After so much time at the beach, we saw and caught lots of critters too. Among the different creatures found, there were: crabs [including, dead horseshoe crabs, a mostly-dead crab, and live hermit crabs], scallops who would open and snap shut, minnows, chubs, and a myriad of sea vegetation.
And, because of the perfect tide schedule, the girls were able to perfect their drip-castle building skills.
While we were at the Cape, Lucy played her first round of mini-golf. And I must say, played really very well. Two holes-in-one [no word of a lie.] Her grip was a little off, but clearly it worked well for her.
Finally, after about a week, the cousins arrived!! We had lots of fun with them. Grammy took all the big kids for a walk to the beach in the morning while Trix took her nap.
In the afternoon we would all go to the beach [different from the one they walked to] for swimming [the cousins are regular little fish], exploration, and castle building.
You should have seen the size of this castle when they were finished with it!
We heard Freddie really loved the beach too. Hopefully, we will get to the beach with him sometime soon!!
A great time was had by all at Grammy's beach house . . .
Thank you, Grammy!!!
