The last two nights have been perfect to visit the beach. We live just 5-10 mins from the a couple of great beaches on Lake MI. While Hubby is exercising I pack the kiddos up and have taken to the beach by myself. They love it. I dont enjoy the sand everywhere but I feel that we live so close I should let the kids expereince the fun of the beach. So the lst two evenings have been perfect. The middle of the week so that means I can find a parking place, not a crazy busy, no breeze ( very important) and the temp is warm enough to play in the water. So the kiddos and I have enjoyed the beach the last two days. The first I made the mistake of not dressing them in swim suits... The result very wet and sandy clothes and kids riding home in just underwear. The second night I got smart and put swimsuits on them. They had a ball! We played in the channel which is about 10 degrees warmer than the lake then moved to the "big lake" where Zach got bowled over by waves and Em was screeching literally screeching with excitment! We had a ball. The kids loved it. We played for about an hour and half then back to the car so that we can take a bath. How do kids get sand every where? I mean everywhere! Oh well here are some pics from our first evening.
