Didn't even make it over night...

On Christmas break Brian and Jake headed down to the beach to stay the night with "just the boys". They had Star Wars movies that needed to be watched, BB guns that needed to be shot, and a dog that was a long for the ride.

It was so beautiful the next day when they woke up, Brian convinced me to head down with the girls for one more night.

This was the view when we got there:
Beautiful blue skies, very little wind. I can't explain my love for this place.

The funny thing was this is what the kids did the minute we walked into the house...... seriously.

After pulling the kids away from their screens, we headed down for the sand:

The tide was out and there were so many rocks exposed this day:

Brian and Jake had found this really sturdy fort that looked like it had been there for a while.

Heading back the sun was setting:

Avery's action shot!

And that is where the fun ended.............................. I really should try to just focus on the positive, and it was positive for the first few hours. And then the fighting started, crying followed and I accidentally dumped half our dinner in the sink...... Brian and I looked at each other and decided to pack it up and drive two hours in the freezing cold, foggy weather to go home at 8pm. I really think that we were the one's that were punished, not the kids. The kids immediately fell asleep and Bri and I caravaned back in crummy weather! We really showed them!
