Emily's First day at the Beach
After awhile, Emily decided to see what sand tasted like. Even though I'm sure it wasn't enjoyable, she tried it over and over again even though we kept trying to stop her. That must have been part of the fun!
Emily tried the water with her feet for a couple of minutes and didn't mind it initially, but then became less of a fan of it. We stayed at the beach until close to noon and then took a walk down to a restaurant/shopping area on the water and got some lunch. Then back to the car and home.
It was a great outing for the day and Emily had such fun. It was just over an hour from our house so is very doable for other free days this summer. Emily was exhausted the rest of the day since she didn't nap super well, but seems to generally be back in the swing of things for today.
We finally got woodchips delivered to put around her swing set so Greg and I worked on those last night and earlier today. They are finally done and Emily's swing set project is complete! The woodchips are free from our town, but it took 3 different phone calls, starting over a month ago, to get them delivered.
