Long Point Beach

Seeing as we finally had a beautiful day this summer and the girls have been begging to go to the beach we decided to do that on Saturday. The weather was fantastic. Not too hot and not too cold. The girls had a blast playing in the waves. The water was fairly warm and the sand was perfect to play in. What more could you ask for at the beach?

The girls started by testing the water. Natalia needed a little help from Daddy because this was her first trip to a beach to swim. We saw the beach in Holland but never swam in it.

Of course we bought the girls some sand toys and we all took turns working on some sand creations. I thought Gerben's castle turned out pretty good.

This is what I like to do, sit at the edge and let the waves come over my legs. I must say that the waves were pretty high and the undertow was fairly strong. We insisted that the girls keep their lifejackets on.

The beautiful sky at the end of a fabulous day!
