East Harbor Day 3

On our third day of camping, we went for several bike rides. this proved to be one way to keep cal entertained for the good part of a couple hours... we were very glad we had the bikes and cal's little bike trailer...

then, we all went to beach again... and the Brandt family showed up for a little bit of family time!

cal and daddy made sand castles

and we had a great time hanging out...

Camping at East Harbor Day 2

On day 2 of our camping trip, we were able to go to the beach, which is why East Harbor is where it is and it's namesake...

AND our pals that live up the road from us came for a visit too! cal and grayson had a great time playing around, and by the time we were done, everybody was ready for a nap!

Family Beach time

We decided to take advantage of the long summer evenings while they are still bright and we took a little family trip to the beach. Here are some pictures from our evening adventure...

A good time was had by all, and the car was very quiet on the way home!

To the Beach!

We had the opportunity to travel to East Harbor beach with friends on Wednesday and we had a total blast! Andrea and her son Grayson, went with us to the beach. They are very close neighbors to us now, and we feel blessed to have found such great friends so quickly after our move. Aaron (Andrea's husband, Grayson's daddy) and Adam stayed home and had a "fried food fest" as it will forever be referred to. We decided to first eat dinner at Arby's.

Calvin went with the chicken nugget option... again.

Then, when we first got to the beach, Cal, of course, played shy and didn't want to walk in the wet sand, nor did he want to walk in the water... and he most CERTAINLY did NOT want to play in the sand... but before we knew it, everybody was kicking up sand and having a grand old time.

We stayed for quite a while at the beach, but then before we went home, we decided to stop for some ice cream. good idea

Cal made a royal mess and kept us all laughing with his cone (which WAS a kiddy size, even though it looks absolutely huge!)

Cal also felt that he should eat the cone before the ice cream was gone... in case some of you don't know, this is not a very good idea! not to mention the fact that it was still wrapped in paper...

The whole way home, while Andrea and I chatted and laughed in the front seat, Cal and Gray chatted and laughed in the back seat... they really are two little conversationalists!
