Our First Trip to the Beach

Sharing is caring!

Over Spring Break (about 6 weeks ago here in Texas) we made a trip with one of my brothers and his wife and kids and went to my in-laws in San Antonio.

One day while we were there we made a trip to the beach in Corpus Christi.

This was my kids’ first time to ever see the beach (other than on tv). They were amazed.

The water was still cold, but it was probably close to 80 degrees out.

We really thought we would just look and dip our toes in the water.

Everyone shed their shoes.

And before we knew it everyone was in the water.

Teeth chattering and not caring one bit.

I mean, how could you resist the ocean?

(I must admit, my sister-in-law had to talk me down off the roof on this. All I could think was…. we have no dry clothes.)

Other than a sand box they had never experienced sand either.

It was like watching a movie.

Nick was not totally keen on running in the water.

But sticks and sand…. oh yeah!

Matthew and cousin Wyatt were fascinated.

By this point Matthew had ditched his wet clothes.

And now Anthony can say he has danced on the beach.

To say the kids had a blast would be an understatement.

We made memories for sure.

And we stopped at the nearest Walmart for dry clothes.

  1. The beach is cool here in CC!

  2. Sure looks like they did have a blast, we visit Lake Michigan every year and my 5 boys could stay there for ever (as long as I had plenty of food lol) Hope you are having a great weekend!!
