Dinner on the Beach

On Friday, we went to Walmart to buy some groceries.  Taking four kids to Walmart is no fun!  We finally made it through that and then we headed home for lunch.  Wyatt and Hallee were in desperate need of a nap and so was I.  I do not sleep well at night and some days I feel like a zombie.  After lunch, Keith took Caitlyn and Jonah down to the game room to play ping pong while I took a nap with Hallee and Wyatt.  I felt like we had wasted a day, so I was really glad that we headed straight to the beach when Gary and Julie arrived.
We were so excited when Gary and Julie got there.  The kids ran around talking a mile a minute.  We packed up dinner stuff and went to the beach to roast hot dogs and make s'mores.   This was probably my favorite thing we did, the whole night was so much fun.
The kids all played in the water and on the beach while we got dinner ready.  I dressed my kids wrong.  It was a little chilly so I put them all in pants and jackets.  They all ended up soaked.  I should have known they would get in the water.
Even Hallee ended up getting wet.  There was a little stream right next to us and she wanted to play in it.  She had fun playing in the sand and the water.  She is such a goof ball, I love her personality.  I also love that rock out there in the middle of the water. 
The girls had a great time with the shovels and buckets.
There was a waterfall right next to us.  The kids loved this and most of them ended up getting in it.
The kids didn't want to stop playing to eat dinner.  I finally got Caitlyn and Jonah to and I ended up chasing Hallee and Wyatt around feeding them bites. 
When we had everything packed up to walk down to the beach we stepped outside and it was raining.  We decided to go for it anyway.  The rain stopped, but it was still foggy.  It ended up being a great night for it.
We had fun visiting and just watching the kids play and have a blast.
