Ocean Isle - Day 4

On Tuesday we stuck around the beach house all day. After some time on the beach, we headed to the pool for awhile. Rylan used the baby float and Carter really liked the new float I had bought for the adults. It ended up that only Carter and Maddie used it. The pool was always so cold that no one spent that much time in it.


After naps, we took the boys back down to the beach for awhile before dinner. The boys typically took their afternoon naps at the same time which gave us a little free time. I usually read either on the porch where there was always a nice breeze or by the pool. I finished one book (Water for Elephants) and started another (The Help).


Checking out the ocean and showing off that dimple ...



Carter was a shovel hoarder. I always lost my shovel whenever I was digging in the sand.


We came across a handful of jellyfish throughout the week.


I got out my SLR camera and got a few good pictures of the boys on the beach ...










After dinner when it was getting dark, we took a walk on the beach with the boys to look for ghost crabs. We saw one when we were almost back to the house but it was another family on the beach that spotted it first. I remember seeing them all the time (even during the day) when I was little. There were tons of holes but we just couldn't find the crabs.
