Had a VERY enjoyable time at Crescent Beach last week. Kelli was up visiting with Keyton, and I was watching Madison. We decided to go to the beach, because it was nice, and the tide was supposed to be pretty low.
It was a bit of a hike to the water, but it was worth it! I love the beach, the smell of the ocean,and the sound of the waves. Madison loved walking in the water, even though the seaweed and sticks had come onto the beach, too. Keyton loved playing with a stick in the sand, and walking in the creek water- which was warmer and non salt!
It felt good being there, and I loved watching the little kids enjoy something new !
The other pictures I am showing are one of Madison's hadprints on the sliding glass door(courtesy of Ashley's cell phone!) (which I will miss presently, as their house is about done) and my big mistake of the spring.
I saw a bird's nest in my rhodedendron. I watched for days and never saw a bird in it, so I took the nest out, and to my surprise, there were three eggs in it! I felt terrible and put the nest back, but you know, it didn't fit the same and the mom never came back.(good thing we aren't like birds!)
Luckily, the birds decided to give it another try, albeit also a strange place, in our ornamental crabapple tree. Three little heads make lots of noise, and have ugly little top knots of feathers!
The parents are diligent, so I must be diligent also and keep the tree watered so the baby birds don't cook up in that tree!
So, hooray for beaches. fingerprints and baby birds!

Wait, birds came back to the three eggs that were sitting in the garage that whole time? I wish the tide had been lower and Keyton had enjoyed the water more but oh well, still love to go out there!
