Christmas day: Beach Trip


Yep, that's right we went to the Ocean on Christmas. The weather was warm but very foggy, it was eerie and beautiful! The water had some good sized waves and there were even some people surfing at the beach. We walked out to the end of the jetty, we saw some funny birds, big waves, bigger boats and even a dolphin (we have yet to go to the jetty and not see a dolphin). The boys enjoyed throwing rocks into the ocean (daddy was skipping rocks), looking through their binoculars and watching me get splashed by a huge wave (it's a good thing I was wearing my flip-flops). It was interesting to see the damage that Ike caused down at Surfside, they are still repairing a lot of structures. Fun Day!

Fun! I love the beach! We went into the mountains on Christmas Eve...with 3 feet of snow!

Can't believe you went to the beach on Christmas. We were here freezing our b...... off. This morning was warmer. 15 degrees when I went out to feed the dogs. It was 5 yesterday.

What a fun Christmas Day activity-you're right it is quite beautiful and eerie. Is Jason looking at you through the binoculars-funny!
