Beach Girl Classics

On our last day of the girls' beach weekend, we headed to downtown Bethany to check out a few shops and a few of beach classics. Beach Girl, get it? Like the Beach Boys' Classics...but we're girls? ;)

To me, visiting the beach means more than just sun, sand, and surf. Which works out, since the only thing we got this past trip was the sand! To me, the beach also means taking in the sights, experiencing the vibe, and finding my future beach house :) Here are a few of the classics that we took in on our final day at the beach:

My new dream house.

Don't you just love beach houses, furniture, and random monuments! I love getting to know new towns and love visiting new beaches even more. Some day I'll live in a small beach town where I can walk to the main street and visit my friends at "Beach Tree" coffee shop...or some equally ridiculously named establishment. Some day. Until then, I'll keep trying new ones to see where I'm going to land. A girl can dream, right? Got any beaches I should visit while shopping for real estate? ;)

Goodbye beach! SEA you next time!

Love,

Stephanie Marie

Kids 'n Play

My dad "crashed" the girls' Bethany Beach trip this past weekend when he drove down Saturday afternoon to spend some time with us. Can't stay at home when the girls were so close!

We had such a great time at the playground before dinner at Harpoon Hannah's that we didn't mind having a cock in the hen house, so to speak. Of course, the girls wanted the adults to play with them, so Jen, Dad, and I did a little slidin', climbin', and swingin'. Mom stayed on solid ground to snap some photos of the fun times.

We are a clumsy bunch, so it's quite surprising that none of the adults got hurt! Although the ground was nice and springy at this one in our neighborhood. You get to see different parts of town when you have two little ones. Never thought I'd know where all the playgrounds in Bethany Beach are! They should have an ap for that ;)

Panpa on the wall climb. Kid at heart :)

Monkey see, monkey do!

Lili made it all the way to the top!

Grandpa and Sisi climbing "careful".

It's times like these I'm so grateful to have such a close-knit family. And close PHYSICALLY to boot! It took Jen and the girls five hours to drive down to Bethany, but I'm hoping she still thinks it was worth it! Hi, family!

Mairzy doats and dozy doats and liddle lamzy divey.

A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?

 

If the words sound queer and funny to your ear, a little bit jumbled and jivey,

Sing "Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy."
