Just a Day at the Beach

IMG_0845

Kara had to go out of town for the whole week on a business trip up to New York.  While she was away, Kasia and I (well, mainly me) decided that it would be fun to go on down to Salvo and spend the night.  So after talking to Karlie, we decided to do just that.

We don’t get together with the Philips family as often as we should, but when the girls all get together they always seem to have a great time.  Oh sure, there’s the occasional fight and every once in awhile someone gets punched in the face, but why should a little physical violence come between friends?  

I’m always a little worried when we stay someplace new, because Kasia usually has a hard time sleeping.  Fortunately, she went down pretty well after a long day of playing, no nap, and three or four stories.  She probably would have slept in too had it not been for the fact that she spent all night dreaming about all the toys just waiting to be played with downstairs. 

We had some rain in the morning that threatened our day at the beach, but fortunately the sun broke through and we had a lovely time playing in the sand.  Kasia actually surprised me by going down and playing in the water.  Not even Kylie would spend time in the water.  Then when the wind picked up and started shooting sand at us, Kasia took refuge under her towel (as seen in the picture above).  I wasn’t as smart and just sat there getting hit by bits of sand.
