The Beach

We spent some time at the pool this am, and then treked to the Beach in the sun. We were so surprised at how much they loved it...we are going to go back in the morning. They loved the Ocean, the sand and digging holes. 

After lunch, we decided to head to the Beach Store for some pool toys. We needed to get Cade out of the condo as he's obsessed with pulling out all the cable boxes, cordless phones and wires and rearranging them so they're "organized". I turned around this afternoon and caught him moving the condo TV until I stopped him. 

Lyla bought a ring with her Tooth Fairy money:

And then we headed over to an arcade at the restaurant where we got dinner. Lyla played the claw game  times, despite heart breaking losses:

And, we all suffered through a terrible Cade meltdown when lance was unsuccessful at winning this ridiculous speaker. Does anyone really win these things?!

We went out to the Beach this evening after dinner and we took a few camera photos - the Ocean was a bit more brooding this evening - I think it's going to storm tonight. The water was rougher and not as blue and clear as it has been. These beaches really are beautiful - the sand is like white powder.

Here are a few photos - the kids are getting really comfortable with the waves.

Prolific statement of the day goes to Cade: "Daddy is off his job while we're on vacation, but you're still working because your job is taking care of us." 

Also of note, Ms. Q. learned to play Uno today and beat me in 5 straight games. Lyla: "I'm the best at Uno in our whole family!"
