Beach Trip 2015- Day 3

We started our day on the beach! What a beautiful day!

This is the best thing I brought. I knew that it was just going to be me and mom and the loot we take down to the beach needed to be limited. I didn’t want to lug a big umbrella, the the anchor so I started doing some research and found the perfect thing! The Shade Shack! A pop-up shade tent. It pops right up and has pockets on the side that you can put sand in, to keep it from blowing away (there are stakes, too in case you aren’t at the beach) and it doesn’t have a bottom so the kids could play in the sand AND be in the shade without trying to move an umbrella every 5 mins! I ordered it from Bed, Bath & Beyond, but you can find it other places, I just had a coupon and a giftcard I used! Yay! What a deal!! The best thing about it was it folds right back up into a a circle and comes with a handy-dadny bag so it’s easy to tote around! I bet it doesn’t weigh 2 or 3 lbs. Love it!

This boy eats CONSTANTLY.

We went up to eat lunch and take a nap. When we got up from our nap Pops was there! It had rained quite a bit on the farm so he decided to join us! We went back down to the beach and played and swam in the pool some more. Then we fixed some supper and headed out to do a little shopping for some more beach toys and we also got ice cream! It was 10pm before we got back to the condo! What a long, but fun day!

Someone left a pool full of sand?? Not really sure what the purpose was? The kids played in in though!

I was shocked she wanted to do it and was still!

She picked pink of course. But it didn’t last long! She pulled it out after about an hour!
