Beachy Springishness

Y'all! It was 83 degrees here today! I mean, I feel the funk of the winter lifting off to it's final layers and I'm so relieved! I can't wait to be at the beach again especially since the kids are pretty much little adults and love talking about fish and birds and shells and boats. They are going to have such a great summer this year and I am so excited for them!

Anyway, we braved the beach today for the first time this season. I was afraid it might still be too cold, and it was. The coastal breeze is still too much to tolerate without a light jacket. The kids had a blast though finding shells and flying a kite for the first time! It was such a fun day! I love those turds way too much!

On the way home, Callie said that she needed new shoes. So I asked her, "What color shoes?", and she said, "Yeyow shoes! Mall!" What does that miss priss know about any mall!?!? I swear that the vocabulary fairies are creepy! She started talking to me about a "chef" the other day when I had briefly come across the food network. Wyatt, on the other hand, wants "Geen shoes!". He thinks everything is green.

Tonight when I asked Callie if she had a fun day at the beach, she talked about finding shells on the beach. Wyatt was much more pessimistic and only remembered that it had been very cold! Heh. Cute little booger.

I'm still unwinding from this past weekend. Too bad Lauren and I are both battling this nasty cough thing. It was worth it though. I would have gotten the flu for that!

Happy Birthday EKS! Love you! Always.

You get 83 and we get 9 inches of snow. But really, one weekend we were playing in the snow and this past weekend it was 85 and we were outside all day in shorts. Your kids are going to have a blast this summer!!!! Hugs and Kisses for all.
