Ship Island

We went to Ship Island this weekend. It was really nice. The weather was great for this. It was nice and cool and a little breezy. A perfect day for a boat ride and the beach. The kids loved going. It was like practically having the beach to yourself. The kids got to explore and go all over. We didn't have to worry about people or highways. We brought a picnic lunch with us so after a little morning exploring, we sat and had lunch on the beach. Grandpa took a nap after that although he swears he didn't. Here is the picture to prove it though. Anthony built sand castles and I took the girls down the beach to find seashells. There were shipping boats off the coast and the kids just thought it was so great that we were on an island and pirate ships were there too.
Ashleigh kept eating sand. I don't know what she thought it was but she would just put loads of it in her mouth. Elena, Ashleigh and Anthony all got burned. I guess because it was breezy we took advantage and didn't slather them up with sunscreen. None of them are complaining about it though which just proves that kids are tougher than adults. I would have already been whining.
Anyway, this was a fun day and hopefully we will do it again.
