Westport Beach

The kids and I had a little day trip fun this summer. We met up with a family that was staying at Westport Beach, just south of Ocean Shores. It was a fun little less than 3 hour drive. They kids got to watch two movies in the van which is always exciting. Driving and seeing the different towns and land formations was interesting.
 Upon arrival we walked to the beach and had some fun. Caramel loved wave jumping with the 2 older boys in the freezing water. Rhett and his buddy played a safe distance away from the water in the sand. Myles kept walking straight for the water, I kept rescuing him before the wave would come. My feet would go numb as soon as the water hit. Sand and toddler are kind of a huge sandy mouth mess.
 
The kids loved finding treasures in the beach.
 Took Rhett awhile to take this picture next the crab.
He kept waiting for the crab to come back to life and attack him.  
Shelbi was kind enough to bury all the kids but the babies.
They transformed into mermaids, fish, and octopus.
 Leaving around 7pm it didn't take the kids long to all fall asleep.
 
Caramel started asking me all these questions about snails. Finally I got a clue and realized she had one in the van. A lovely present from her friend Max before we left. I figured she could keep it for awhile so I threw her back a container. But once in the contain the snail got really comfortable and was moving all over the place. Caramel was okay with letting him go seeing all his activity. He made it about 2 miles from home.
