Life is a Beach! And a trip to the music store...& Shabat dinner

We enjoyed more time with grand kids on Friday at the beach...this is some of my art with the abundance of seaweed on the sand...
Grandpa and grandson played some catch...
And then enjoyed the warm water together...
The kids raced up the sand dunes...
Played in the sand...
watched a guy get a huge kite up in the air...
Later we stopped in to this small music store to pick up grandpa's banjo that
was there for repairs...
My grandson is very into music and was in awe at the plethora of instruments everywhere he looked...
then there was ice cream that had them instantly wired
and then they crashed...came down from their sugar highs and
took a nap until we got home.
What a good day it was for all of us.
In the evening my daughter prepared a lovely Sabbath dinner
and we sat around the table, two sets of grandparents,
two adult children, and two grandchildren
a lovely loving family
and a lovely loving time.

  6. What a fun day you all had. I loved the photos. Especially the one of the kids together on top of the sandhill. That should be framed. What fun to go to the Beach and spend time in the sand. I miss that. You may have had to wait awhile but what a nice special day you got.

  8. Soul, the kids made those tie-dyed shirts at camp! I agree about being a twin...I see such a comraderie between them...thoughtfulness, caring, love, and yes sometimes fighting but I did not see that this time at all.
    I saw your challenge and will give it some thought. ;-)

    Thanks all for your thoughtful comments. We are truly blessed.
