Today I learned another perk of being in the military : the vfw here in Delaware has a private beach! Using my husband's military id, we were able to park right next to the beach (for free!) and we had the whole place to ourselves. It was on the bay side, nice and shallow with gentle waves that were perfect for my little ones. Sophia learned to lay on a boogie board and even paddled a bit. Danny had fun digging in the sand and building a castle with Daddy. Even Alex enjoyed the water! He wanted to crawl right into it, and loved sitting on the edge watching it splash his toes. The cousins had fun too, riding boogie boards, building castles and ponds, and even getting in a major water war with their uncle! It was so quiet, so much fun, and just a perfect location to share a morning with family. I'm so glad Grandpa had the day off to share with us! Now my very exhausted troops are bathed and napping, because our recent adventures have really worn them out. But these are our last few days to see the cousins for a long time, so we want to make some great memories!
