#234 - Happy Father's Day 2012!

We celebrated Father's Day weekend with a trip to the beach on Saturday.  It wasn't until we were packing up to leave that we realized this was Benjamin's first trip to the beach.  He did pretty well, except for the first fifteen minutes or so - as soon as he saw the sand, he shoved a fist-full of it in his mouth.  It took a lot of water and tears before he was better!

But, we all had a great time at Tybee!  We swam in the ocean, looked for crabs, tried to catch little fish in our nets, and walked up and down the beach.  It was a near perfect day - highs in the 80s and very breezy.  And, it was a perfect way to celebrate Father's Day and honor Lou for being a wonderful, loving dad.  Our boys are truly so blessed to have him as a daddy.

Owen and Benjamin enjoyed filling buckets with sand

Check out the video - you can see the baby crab Owen caught. 


Going to the beach sure does wear you out!  Benjamin fell asleep with the bottle hanging from his mouth.  He stayed like that all the way home.  Ha Ha!

Sunday morning, Lou got plenty of Daddy Time in with his boys.  They love climbing all over him!

This weekend, Owen found a dead frog in our driveway.  Yuck!!!  After he picked it up, I told him to go throw it away in the side lot next to our house because I didn't want him playing with it.  Well, unbeknownst to me..... instead of throwing it in the lot, he opened up his Daddy's car door and threw it onto the floor board.  Later that day, when Lou climbed into his Explorer, he had a dead friend waiting for him at his feet.  Can you believe Owen?  That little stinker!  When Lou asked him how the frog got in his car, Owen started giggling and laughing and fessed up to putting it there.  He was so proud of himself!  Happy Father's Day!
