visit from grandma

We enjoyed a visit from Mom before we headed out on vacation...The kids loved the all-you-can-eat mac and cheese at Souplantation and soft serve in a mini-cone was a big hit!
Of course, hitting the beach is mandatory. Aunt Kristin sent a huge bag of sand toys and that's all they wanted to play with! The first thing Brady did was dump a shovel full of sand in grandma's tote bag. Second order of business: fling a shovel full of sand at Emily, covering her from head to toe.
Mallory is the smiliest baby this side of the Pacific! Brady wanted to share the wealth with "Baby Mally" It was a little breezy with the last of the June gloom (which I desperately miss inland!)

I taught them the art of sandcastle design using the Wet Sand Drip Method. Brady just wanted to "renovate" aka destroy.
In this video Emily is acting oh-so-nonchalant, then BLAM!

Emily finds a shell.

A lifeguard boat came up and sprayed water on some kids swimming in the water.

That looks like so much fun! Grandma must love being able to come down and hang at the beach with her babies!
