80 percent chance of rain? Not on my watch...

Well, the youngest was up again at 7 this morning. Doesn't she understand anything about vacations? I did make her go and wake up Grandma though - that's what they get.

We were out of the house early and on the beach at 9:30 this morning. It was supposed to rain badly so we thought we'd go early and at least get some ocean time in. Needless to say it was a gorgeous day. Both the girls had a blast running in the water and jumping over waves (don't worry Jonathan - I got lots of pictures and videos). I only got slightly burned on my back. Woo-hoo. After a couple of hours we bribed them off the beach with promises of hotdogs and frozen lemonades. (Worked like a charm too - and anyone who says that is bad parenting obviously has no children)

I think I'm going to force (yeah right) them into the pool for a couple more hours this afternoon so they can get good and tired. Then it will be an early bedtime for them and some shopping at Bass Pro (I hope) for me and my mom. Keeping my fingers crossed, anyways...
