HOPE Beach Hangout

Uncle Jason, Auntie Marnie, and Joshua let us tag along with them after church to the beach! Actually we first stopped for lunch and then a store since I forgot to pack his flip flops! Ugh, I hate wasting money unnecessarily. Oh well. NJ had the back seat to himself. 
It's been a long time since we've been to the beach. Our first beach trip of the summer! 
NJ had the best time just digging and playing in the sand. 
The water was actually kind of warm, that almost never happens. Usually the water is toe numbingly chilly. It was a pleasant surprise that the temperature felt great. Not only that, but the sun wasn't too strong or hot. At times, it was a bit overcast which made it even nicer. 
Lots of people here! It's no wonder since it's such a beautiful and perfect day for the beach.
How cute the boys are building something together. It was nice of Josh to help NJ and play with him in the sand.
I had capris on too, but they got so soaked with water that they were heavy and falling off. Should've brought something extra! 
Took him a while, but he finally wanted to come out to the water with us. Well, he had his own agenda usually. Like washing his sandy truck or filling his bucket with water. 
The boys took off to play football with the rest of the boys. Even NJ who was too little to play, but he wanted to stay with Baba to watch. While the boys were occupied, my friend and I took a nice stroll along the water. It was so nice! I can't remember the last time the beach was this great! Usually I am trekking back and forth to bring NJ to the bathroom, it's super scorching hot, it's sticky, or windy, or something! If I could predict perfect beach days like this I wouldn't be so reluctant to go most of the time. Lots of people would love to be near beaches, but here I am complaining about it. Maybe I should give it more chances throughout the summer. 
Sharing some shaved ice together. 
The two hungriest boys finished it off easily for us!
