Back from the beach

Owen and I got back tonight from a quick trip to the beach to visit Leigh, Adam, and of course Beans Bones. We went to the beach on Thursday and it was REALLY windy. At one point, the wind blew Owen's float away and as I tried to chase it down the beach in my maternity bathing suit, the waves picked up my bag and attempted to take it out to sea. I had to decide which was more important and went with the bag since it had my keys, cell phone, and camera in it :) Owen loved the beach despite it being so rough and spent the entire time digging holes and filling them up with those little clams that Adam said are called periwinkles. We also got to hang out at their pool, paint some pottery, go out to eat, go book shopping, play lots of Wii and most importantly to Owen, harass Beans the dog. Here are some pics!


Owen posing in a giant shark mouth at a beach store. He insisted laying down so as to simulate being eaten by the shark.
Making his giant hole in the sand so that he could bury the "clams". The poor things all perished as he then filled the hole with mud and sat on it.
Owen and Beans Bones. He terrorized the dog the entire time and it doesn't help that Beans is a bit high strung to begin with.
Picture taken by Owen out of the car window at Sonic while we ate lunch. The seagulls were just sitting there, minding their business until.... Someone had the brilliant idea to throw tater tots out the window. They ATTACKED my car. One sat on top of the sunroof and stared at us and I swear would have pecked our eyes out if it could have gotten in the car. Can you tell that I have an irrational fear of birds???

The owner of the store had a dog named Cookie that hung out there all day. Owen chased the dog around and luckily I didn't end up having to pay for a bunch of broken pottery that I was sure he would knock over.
This picture is again compliments of Owen hence the blurriness due to no flash. But I had to include it because it shows me rocking out playing Rock Band on the Playstation. That's Adam on the couch doing his version of "singing" :) If you ask Leigh and Adam and they try to tell you that I wasn't very good on the drums, guitar or vocals, they LIE I tell you, LIE!!!!!!!!!
