The beach beats the heat

It has been hot, hot, HOT! I mean sweat-pouring-down-your-face-and-back-the-moment-you-step-outside hot. So Friday we went to the beach to beat the heat.

Cambry took off to the waves the moment we got there.
She was much more adventurous this time. What a difference two months make. She was charging the waves rather than running from them and surprisingly stable when the waves would crash on her.

Vienna, our little jack-o-lantern (see that little tooth!), loved the beech this time around. She would sit in our laps and splash as the waves lap over here chubby legs.

Cambry in beach bliss.

Cambry loved making, but mostly finding others', 'tall, tall, tall' sand towers.

All the girls together playing in the shallows.

Cambry got some fun mommy time kicking the waves

Vienna got to nap for a little bit. 

Cambry and I made some sand towers, but Cambry was more interested in the dug out holes that would fill with water.

This is first time that Cambry has really let me toss her like this. It was so fun. She usually latches onto my arm or hands with a death grip.

Look at this happy, but extremely tired face. Her eyes barely open and all puffy. She was so exhausted, but couldn't stop playing. We finally had to leave when she was switching between hysterical laughter and sobbing cries every minute.

Passed out in a matter of seconds of being strapped into the car. She played herself to utter exhaustion.

The trip to the beach definitely kept us cool and made for one happy, exhausted family
