The Beach!

We went to the sound today because we finally had a beautiful day! It was so much fun! The only thing that would have made it better was if Daddy could have come. (He will be back from Germany in just over two weeks!) When we got there the tide was out so we were able to explore all the little tide pools and see the amazing life that exists there. This video clip is of some kind of sea worm I think. It looked like a tiny clear straw but it wiggled and moved with life. It was my favorite thing about the beach. We saw tiny crabs, hermit crabs, big huge crabs, tube worms, anemones, and sea shells. La-La loved turning over rocks and watching all the little crabs scurry for cover. They remind me too much of spiders but I hide my fears so she won't be scared too. She even would pick them up and hold them! Jaco wanted to leave as soon as we got there but then he started to have fun. He didn't want to touch anything because he was afraid it was poisonous. Care Bear wasn't too sure about it all but she says she loved the bugs (crabs) the most. She wouldn't hold a real one but she showed everyone her pretend crab. We collected sea shells, got sand everywhere and had a blast doing it!

This video clip is of La-La holding a crab. She thought it was pretty cool until it tried to climb up her arm!
