Beach bums

Today was another beautiful day at the beach. Southern Ontario is definitely blessed to have some amazing beaches. Although, sandbanks (aprox. 2 hrs from Ottawa)is very comparable. D is a huge beach bum. I always tell him that he should have grown up on the beach. I think it is definitely one of his very favorite things to do. (One of the reasons for us heading to NZ :) I mean I really like it, but sometimes the thought of the work that goes into packing up for us and the the two girls sometimes overwhelms me to the point where I wonder if its worth it. That and the idea of the clean up after of sand that get's in every nook and cranny can slightly deter me...sometimes. But once I get there I always have such a good time that I realize how ridiculos it is to let things like that get in the way of doing the things you love or find enjoyment from. I think we will be doing quite a bit of the beach thing while we are here and it is so close.
