Beach Time

We finally made it to the beach yesterday. I think it's been 3 weeks since we had been . With Soccer on Saturdays it makes it hard to get there. Don't tell anyone but I'm kind of excited about the furlough days the state of Hawaii has cut out of the kids school schedules (17 fridays) to help with the budget. I plan to hit the beach with the kids those days or some other "field trip" it's educational right??

Last night we had a potluck at the beach for a friends birthday so the kids and I decided to head down a couple hours early so we could play. Matt met us there once he was done with work.
They brought a soccer ball and we played soccer on the beach. I only lasted one game (it's a work out) but the kids played for quite a while. Then we walked down the beach further and saw some jelly fish creatures that had washed up with the tide. We got in the water for a bit and enjoyed the sunset!! AMAZING
So cute...and it was her idea! I think I'll frame it and give it to here when she's a teenager and not "loving mom" so much!

I LOVE this one of Olivia washing off her shoes as we were getting ready to leave. Beautiful! It was a perfect evening at the beach!

Okay, Keri, I want to live there. Do you have room for a family of five to crash? :) Great pictures.

Slade loves Dawson and Hank loves Olivia. That is what Slade said to write to you! He also wants to see your house.

Hank said, Slade loves Olivia and Dawson. Hank loves Adam and Issac.

Now Slade said, He loves all of the kids.

We could go on and on this way. I think the point is that they love you all. Have a great day. I want to go to the beach.

Those pictures are gorgeous! I think framing the "I love mom" picture is a great idea. What a sweet girl you have!
