We Did It!

We took off and went to Tybee Island. We had lunch at the Dolphin Reef Restaurant and had a ball watching the umbrella's get swept away in the wind. We took 350+ photos...here is a small sample of those! This was Erik, Gabby, and Kylie's first time to an ocean EVER...so I captured some good shots of them especially!
Kylie loved the ocean and was fascinated by the waves and how they carried her inland so much. She also loved the sand and how it was so soft and white and the fact that her feet prints disappeared with the surf.
Tommy started out with his shirt on...but I'm here to tell you, he's a little red on the back this morning...as am I!
Our pyramid...the older 3 didn't want any part of it as they were too embarrassed...their loss...we had fun doing it...Kylie, Mo, and I.
Erik loved that he could play trucks in the white sand. He wants that white sand at home to play in...he's still a kid at heart even if he is 13.
Gabby was digging up sand...not looking for shells like she was supposed to be. I got some good shots of her pretending though.
Our very first ever in real life Jellyfish...dead...but still real. There were 2 others over by the pier and we did see one in the water...it was time to go then...I wasn't getting stung and then peed on.
Erik buried Mo in the sand...this was the result of that!
Natalea had a good time too...she wasn't having anything to do with that pyramid though.
We all had a wonderful time...and afterward on our way home stopped at Wendy's for a Frosty. We also stopped in Statesboro for some water...all that salt and heat can get one pretty thirsty down here. I don't think the Atlantic is as salty as the Pacific though...I know this because I've swam in both now. We even tried body surfing...but agreed that next time we will be bringing some floatation devices to catch the waves on! SURF'S UP!
Happy Hump Day!
Love,
TT
