To the Beach!

Today, the 4 of us and the Wagner’s loaded up a couple of cars and headed out to Westport! Living in Kansas, sometimes it makes me feel a little crazy knowing that I am no where near an ocean, I feel a little claustrophobic being completely surrounded by land. So, while Royal is still here, we wanted to take advantage of the Pacific Ocean only being an hour and a half away! It was pretty cold when we got there this morning, but the sun eventually came out and it warmed up quite a bit. I was just thankful it wasn’t raining!

Royal and Willow all coordinated in their purple!



Taking advantage of some driftwood.



The 3 boys contemplating their next move.



They decided that it’s not too cold and yes, they were going to go swimming. Brrrrrrr. I remember when we used to do this as kids. Now, it’s too freakin’ cold. :)







Royal put Willow’s feet in the ocean for the first time. It won’t be the last!



She got a little cold, her lips turned a bit blue, and she didn’t seem to happy.



But she perked up right away!



After we got most the sand off the boys, got them dried up, and a bit warmed up. We hit the town, smelled some flowers, checked out the docks and boats, and then went to the candy store and got lollipops and salt water taffy. Because it’s just not a trip to the beach without leaving with a bag of taffy!



We then headed back to the beach to play for a bit before we got back in the car!







Yea for the ocean and cousins!
