Fun at seaside

We had a blast today on the coast. We decided to take the kids and Nana and Papa to Seaside for some beach fun. There are a lot of really fun shops there and things to do with the kids. There are swing sets on the beach that the kids loved. We got caramel corn from a candy shop, and played a ton of games at the arcade and bought some super cool souvenirs from a very fun little shop called Del Sol. They have tons of shirts and jewelry and swim wear that changes colors in the sun. Jake and Ben got these awesome pirate necklaces that turn from silver to gold in the sun. Joelle and Emma got these beautiful white flower necklaces. Emma's turns pink in the sun and Joelle's turns blue. Actually it's all about uv rays, so they all still turned even though it was cloudy :). It was a very fun day!

Fun in the snow.

So this picture was taken a while ago but I love it and wanted to make sure I got it on here. This was back in December when we got a very small amount of snow but my children found the joy in playing in it anyway. I thought this would be a good way to try out my new blogger app. If I can really blog from my phone then I will be back to blogging and life will be good again :) so let's hope this works. Kind of a boring post , sorry . It's just one of those "testing, one, two, three, testing," kind of things :)
