Wet







After a slow and leisurely morning filled with laughter, games, smoothies, and Lego playing we are finally ready to get outside and breathe some fresh air. The rain that had threatened all day held off and we all headed to Lover's Point for some tide pool discovery. No sooner had we loaded everyone into the cars and the rain began. The Dads made the audible and we proceeded as planned - can you tell there were two Navy Dads involved in this decision?
The surf was really high, and the water was filled with thrill seeking surfers. The rocks were we typically find lots of star fish yielded none, but we did see some big anemones, probably because the water was coming so far up and it was pretty deep in places where we usually wade and even rock skip typically.
Noah and Ben opted for sand castle creations, only to be surprised by the waves that crashed up on the sandy beach, making them both more than a little wet. Shoes, jeans, jackets, and even faces dripping with cold, salty sea water signaled the end to the outing and we headed back home for some fun and dinner.
