Burton has been asking me to take him to the beach for the last three weeks but owing to the cold weather and me being ill, I haven't been able to take him and Jenson. However, Tuesday morning was sunny and quite warm - ideal weather for taking the boys to the seaside - so we left the house just after 9.30am and set off with buckets and spades and wellington boots.
I decided to take the boys to a nearby estuary beach called Crow Point which is about 10 miles from where we live. It is a remote beach and you pay a toll to drive to it as its a privately owned road, but its worth the £1.50 because we had the beach to ourselves!
The boys were in their element and couldn't wait to make some sandcastles
They also did some 'rock climbing' and 'scraping'
They discovered pebbles with sea weed stuck to them
Found some driftwood
Went exploring in the sand
Did some jumping
Did some roly polies
Did some digging
Did some running
Pretended to be pirates
Looked at the glassy water and the reflections on the water of the sky and clouds
But most of all - we had fun and smiled a LOT
