Beach Day!

On Saturday, we headed up to Tawas, MI

to play at the beach on Lake Huron.

We were lucky, our friends the Dyers

were able to come with us, too!

The weather was perfect

and a lot of fun was had by all.

Coming into Tawas, a first good look at the lake.
It's so pretty!

We decided to go up to the State Park this time.

The Lighthouse at Tawas Point.

Evie's first encounter with sand.
She was a bit concerned at first.

Everyone else digging right in!
John and Johnny decided to build a sandcastle.
The girls helped at first.


It didn't take long for Evie to join the fun!

Lele "cheesing" on the beach.
Lele and Daddy taking a break to pose.

Another priceless moment.

Evie's 1st time in the water.

She LOVED it!
(see video below of her spashing)

Daddy and Lele splashing in the water.

Johnny goofing off with Hailey.

The guys worked hard on the sandcastle.

Evie "supervising" their work!

Lele spent most of her time digging in the sand.

She and Hailey were finding "crystals"

(pieces of wood, that they wanted to KEEP).

Almost done with the sandcastle.

TADA!

The finished castle, complete with moat and dock!
We always stop at the Wilson Cheese Shoppe

in Pinconning to get cheese, and

take a picture with the mouse!

Here's a short video I took of Evie

splashing in the lake.



Evie loves to wave now!
