First Day at the Beach!






Our first day at the beach was a little on the cool side, but that didn't deter Laura from getting in the water that was below 60 degrees! Claire was even getting in before we left. I do not like water below 80 degrees so I stayed clear and just took pictures with Emily. The girls were loving the sand and they started digging right away.
That night we took the girls to the Boardwalk in some matching dresses. They were definitely attracting attention as you can imagine! Lucy and Claire loved the rides and AnnaClaire loved the carousel, but...she preferred the rest of the rides from the sidelines. She agreed to ride a truck with all four girls and moments after it started the tears came too and the kind girl running the ride stopped it and let her off. Little Miss Personality shocked us all by being a spectator when it came to rides, but she jumped and clapped while her friends rode. Claire, who doesn't miss many meals, protested that she didn't want to eat because she didn't want to stop riding the rides. At the end of the evening we were eating these wonderful fried doughy treats that were covered in powdered sugar while Emily and Laura rode the big rides. Day 2 ended and we all had a wonderful time! The adults were more ready to go home than the little ones!
