Day at the Beach

It's halftime of the Michigan game so I decided to do something productive with my time...

Today we took the boys to the beach. Will went earlier this summer with Grandpa and had a great time but Alex hadn't been yet. We got to the cottage around 10:30 or so and pretty much had the beach to ourselves. It was very calm when we got there but the water was a little on the cool side. Will immediately started playing with his sand toys and put his toes in the water. Alex sat down and ate some sand. I thought it would discourage him from trying it again... but it did not. We had to keep our eyes on him.

Phil and Will played tennis on the beach and built a cool sand castle with a river in the middle. We took a nice walk down the beach and had a picnic lunch. Alex liked watching the waves. By noon, there were several other families down on the beach and the water felt much warmer. We played for a bit more before packing up and heading home.

We walked up to town and Will had a picnic dinner.  Then we all got some frozen yogurt.  Now we are suffering through the football game. 
First time in the sand

I like the beach!

Happy boys

About as good of a family photo as you can expect with two little ones...

The beach was deserted in the morning
