Today when we woke up the ocean was angry. There were 6 ft waves pounding the beach and the water was running in the gate of the park. It was fun to watch how the pounding waves moved the sand and rocks around. The ocean is powerful.
The kids played in the sand inside the fence for a few hours until the tide started to subside a bit. Silas had a little Mexican girl to play with.
We had a good breakfast of sausage, eggs, and pancakes while we waited for better conditions on the beach.
When the tide went down enough to expose some beach outside the fence, Abby, Silas, Emma and Gramma went and played in the waves. They couldn't get in very much water because they didn't want to get swept out to sea. Kenia sat on the beach and played lifeguard.
The kids spent most of the afternoon in the pool with Sue and Kenia. Their first day has been a busy one.
After supper we all took a walk downtown for some ice cream. I'm not a fan of Mexican ice cream, but it was a hit with the kids.
Gramma bought them all some poppers so they went to the town square and popped them on the cement. Good call Gramma.
That was about it for our day. We all wandered home and got ready for bed. Silas went and put on what he thought was his pj's and appeared to the laughter of everyone. He had mistakenly put on Lincolns. He is such a little ham!!!

So much fun, maybe too much fun for the Grandparents.... The next round of visitors may not be so busy!? At any rate, have a great time with the little ones and Mom!
