May 2008 Pre summer beaching!!

Eric did some OT in Miami , so we didn't see him for about a week, so I packed up the kids and took the 2 hour ride to Lauderdale. We met Eric and off we were to the beach! We decided to go to Hollywood beach and park at Uncle B's station, one block away from the ocean. The weather report said it was supposed to be sunny but when we got there it was windy and cloudy! Of course that didn't stop the guys from going in the ocean..even though it was rough. Mallory was a little hesitant on the sand as you can see in the picture, she was tip toeing through the sand...after a while she got used to it though! We then took a ride on the beach bikes you can rent and went up and down the boardwalk....We ended the day at Jaxson's Ice cream parlor off A1A., they are known for their famous huge ice cream desserts... You should have seen the kid's eyes as they brought us our ice cream!! The kids were pooped and fell asleep on the long ride home...
