2nd Stop....

 We all were so excited planning our second stop on our mini vacation!  We went to Venice about 10 years ago when J, E, and B were little.  We couldn't wait to go back again!

It was a perfect day for digging for shark's teeth....the weather was hot, the water was cool, and the beach was pretty empty.  We had a great time!

 Callie had a great time making sand castles.

 Patrick, Beth, Brenna and Silas were pretty consumed with finding shark's teeth.

 We didn't find quite as many as we did when we first went, but we still enjoyed a great time at the beach!!

 I love the photo above and the photo below.  Patrick and Brenna have the same determined-yet-the-sun-is-so-bright look.

 Silas gathered a couple of teeth and have 2 set aside to mail to Josh.

 I love the modesty of the Hook Publications culottes.  You can be so active in them, yet be modest as well!  They work perfect at the beach.  I sewed these with Silky Solids fabric from JoAnns.  It dries quick and doesn't cling.

 It was a great vacation for us!
