Back at the beginning of September, we took a last-minute trip to the beach, in an attempt to soak in the last bit of summer. Neither Marc or I had ever been to the beach on the Atlantic side, with the exception of Florida, so we weren't sure of what to expect. The kids had never been to the ocean- ever. Lakes? Yes, but no oceans, so this was a treat.
Maddy with her friend exploring the waves. The beach was beautiful- and the water was clear.
Owen, searching for seashells, and making sandcastles. This is a boy who could spend hours in a sandbox, so you can imagine his delight.
Burying Owen in the sand. He was a cooperative victim.
The waves were very big. I was totally surprised.
Marc, baywatching it back to the towels and snacks.
Sand creations. In addition to making sand animals, the girls and Owen collected seashells- which were surprisingly abundant- and now fill a large sack in our house. Not sure what to do with those....
Can you tell that someone is a little fearful of Melanoma? Yes, I was in stark contrast to the nearby bikini women slathering on the SPF4 and rotating every 5 minutes.
For any of you in the area....the beach was Robert Moses. It was awesome, and only about a 45 min drive from Manhattan. We will definitely be duplicating this next summer. Thanks for the suggestion (and company!) Glass Posse!

You know, you can go to the beach year round here in Texas. Just in case you were thinking of visiting. Your beach may be better looking, but I bet our water is warmer :)
This is Scott. Love the Marc Hasselhoff Baywatch shot. By the way your kids are really cute. Hope everything is going well!
