y were here, especially at the beach. I thought for sure that we'd be stuck in traffic for a while, but to my surprise we didn't get stuck once. It was a really nice drive. This was the first time they had gone to Virginia Beach and the first time my Grandmother had even been to Virginia. The beach was really busy and the waves were tolerable unlike the monsters we encountered in July when Bertha was swirling around in the Atlantic. Joshua spent a lot of his time digging in the sand and building things. Except for this one time when he was trying to bury himself. That hole needs to be a little bit bigger! LOL!
Cassie spent a lot of her time looking for crabs and other animals. If you really know her or have read her blog then you know that she loves crabs as pets. While in the water a man picked up a crab and threw it back out in to the ocean. I was taking lots of pictures and just happened to snap this one of her giving him a seriously dirty look. She was very upset that he threw it instead of gently placing it back in the water. I tell ya, this picture says a thousand words lol! That's my dad and brother in the background. They knew what
she was thinking before she even said it lol!
Here's Grandma.
As for me, I spent quite a bit of time looking for animals for Cassie. That hunt ended abruptly when I saw a $5 dollar bill coming in with the waves. Now I don't dive for much but I will dive for money! LOL!
One thing I did learn with having a house full of 8 people is that I need to get some more pillows and some beach towels. 8 people going to the beach= 8 towels. The same number of people taking a shower when we get home from the beach is another 8 towels. That's a lot of towels for 1 day!
I REALLY wanted to go parasailing this time but didn't get to so I'm DEFINITELY going to next summer :). I've wanted to do that for a really long time.
