So yesterday we went to the beach (Point Pleasant), and by we I mean the kids, myself and my sister Cindy. Curt had to work. People might have thought us crazy given the weather report for the day, but if you looked closely at the weather radar it showed that down south they weren't going to get rain! And it was right! We had mostly cloudy weather but it was nice to not have to bake in the sun! And we had no traffic going down (and coming back really), we got a great parking spot right next to the beach and bathhouse. The sun did peek out a couple times while we were on the beach. And the water was not too cold, but the waves were a little rough. There was that once in a while big one. The kids both had a great time digging in the sand and Tyler loved getting splashed by the waves, Emily, not so much.
The great thing about Point Pleasant, there was also a boardwalk with rides, games, food and even an aquarium. By the time we decided to leave the beach and head to the boardwalk, the sky completely cleared and the sun was shining! But that made it alittle hot on the boardwalk! Tyler decided that he like roller coasters and went on it three times!
Emily went on the Merry-go-round twice,
we all rode the train and another spinning ride and the a couple other kid rides. They had a great time and talked about it all the way back to Cindy's house. Until we hit the monsoon! There was a huge storm moving in as we were nearly to Cindy's house and even Tornado warnings! The wind and rain was crazy but we were so close to her house we kept going. Once there we waited it out, but it actually passed quickly. Then after a quick bath for the kids and shower for me, we left for home. They both stayed awake for about half they way home and then Emily passed out and stayed out. Tyler woke briefly but went right to bed when we got home. Needless to say they were tired!
