Beach Day with the Mayers

Our weekend of fun visits continued on Saturday when the Mayers came up to the beach. Elliott and I enjoyed some mid-morning snuggles when he asked to read stories and get in bed around 9:30 am. I'm never one to turn down snuggles!



There is an awesome collection of dump trucks, fire trucks, and the like at Abino. These are originals from the 70s and 80s.

I think we need a haircut again.

We went down to the beach after nap. Our beach was quite different from the day before because of a huge storm we had on Friday night. The sand was much higher on the rocks and full of heavy iron (hence the dark color here). Elliott usually insists on wearing his swim trunks over his swim diaper but went for just the diaper on this day. I love seeing those legs!

Humphrey dug a hole in the sand and Elliott settled right into it. There are Tucker and Dutch in the top of the shot.

Tucker took his turn in the sand.

The kids enjoyed fun in the tub to wash the sand off. Remember these pictures of the three of them in the tub a few months ago?

All smiles.

Poppy, Coco, Taz, and Sue came home around dinner time. Poppy put this hat on Elliott and he actually wore it. He usually takes them right off. I love this picture!

Elliott and his best friends.

I'd like to think he is going to get the other hat for Tucker.

Elliott cozied right up to Taz, Coco's brother. They developed a nice bond over the course of the weekend.
