Beautiful Day

On Saturday, we took a family trip to the gulf. Instead of going to the beach we usually go to, we tried the state park.

 

Jackson has been wanting a boogie board for awhile, well Wal-mart was sold out so he got a fish/squirter board. Of course, we told him it was a boogie board.

 He tested it out first thing!

Not to bad!

The weather was beautiful and the water was nice and warm. What a great day to marvel at God's creation!

I so enjoy watching this boy having fun. He lives out every moment of every day.

 Mel and Brian tried out a little fishing and caught a small fish.

 Meanwhile, someone else was reeling in a string ray. CRAZY! He cut the barb off because he let it back into the ocean.

Jackson had a blast swimming and riding the waves with Daddy, 

and digging with Papa.

 Brian caught about 10 hermit crabs for Jackson. Jackson kept them safe and cool in his bucket. We brought them home, but they died. Now, we just have some cool shells.

Thankful to spend some time with Papa and Grandma

The entire time we were there I kept thinking what a beautiful day it was. I soaked up every minute of sun, fun, and this cute face!
