Playtime at the beach
Posted By pamelamyers on August 11, 2013
One of the first things we did at the beach was fly kites. Maddox brought his kite and so did Sam. Mark loves flying kites, he always did, way before Sam was in the picture, so it is nice to see him be able to share that with the kiddos.
After the kite is in the air, we always let Sam and Maddox take a turn flying the kite on their own. There have been a few runaway kites, but no worries, they don’t go far!
My mom and I had taken Sam to a little store, Sands, that morning to pick up a few quick things. She saw this huge rubber ducky and begged me for it. I gave in (it is vacation after all!) and Sam couldn’t wait to take him to the beach.
Can you tell the kids were having a good time? Those smiles are so precious.
Sam and Maddox worked very intently, and very successfully, at getting themselves covered in sand from head to toe.
But it is all worth it to see that face. 🙂
Hugs! The cousins were so happy to hang out together on the beach where they could run around like lunatics, make a huge mess, and not one adult told them not to.

There didn’t seem to be many tidal pools this year but Mark took Sam down to the jetty to look for hermit crabs and the like. She was feeling lazy and needed a piggy back ride.
I don’t know how much they found down there at the jetty, but I found some happy family members!
Sam couldn’t have been happier to dig and play all day long. It was hard to drag her off the beach most days. This is so early in the week, and she was just getting started!
