Sandbridge Beach

This post is long over due but sitting in traffic or the parking lot as 64 is known what better time. Several weeks ago we took the kids to sandbridge beach. We live 20 min to va beach but as locals we don't want the crowds or the gagle of shops that can get expensive with 5 kids.

Sandbridge. Is about 10 min from back bay and 1first beach it has been two years from the last beach visit so this was long overdue. This was the first tome the twins had gone to the beach . Ok so it's been 5 years. It was funny to watch there reaction to the sand and the ocean. It took time and coaxing to get them into the water but once in that's all she wrote. That was until a big wave knocked them down about ten min apart. Then it was tome to go but until then watching them run in and out with the waves and laugh.

The older three with there boogie boards and for a change got to be kids 17 and18 yr old kids but kids none the less. It was great to watch Carl as group of girls walked by and then to hear he got knocked over by a wave because he wasto busy looking at them. Of course Dominic luck held true poor thing his board strap broke . That is something that has yer to fail for him that and his fishing poles.

Then as I watched my daughter I realized how much she had grown. Standing in the water looking like some surfer girl from 60's movie. She is constantly being described as charming and sometimes I see what others see and one day her inner and outer beauty will be blinding.

Then there are those rare moments when you see your husband truly laugh and smile. Spending the day at the beach was a good idea..
