Beach Day!

Today was glorious. Beautiful sunshine, temps in the eighties, slight breeze, no humidity...an absolutely perfect summer day. The exact kind of day that demands enjoyment, even if you happen to have a to-do list over three pages long. So I woke up Sophie from her nap (unheard of!), picked up Emma after school and drove straight to the beach. The girls frolicked for 2 1/2 hours without a single argument or complaint. (Unprecedented!) We all seemed to relax the minute we hit the sand. At one point, Sophie turned to me and said, "You look happy, Mommy. I so glad the beach likes you." TGI-Summer, baby!!!

Sophie showing off her weird new beach ball. Yeah, I know...it's creepy. But hey...do ya dig the hair?

 Nothing warms a girl up better than a Rapunzel beach towel and cheesy rice cakes.

Cold water be damned. The girls take on Lake Michigan.
Born to beach it.
