Hello Summer......At Last!




Last Friday we had the opportunity to hang out at the beach all day with friends who have their own beach house. From morning until sunset we played at the beach, laughed with friends, ate good food, and enjoyed every minute of the beautiful New England scenery. Amazing. God is AWESOME. The kids (and us too, of course!) did not want to leave! On the way home we got to see lobster boats, cast against a brilliantly painted sunset sky, coming in from a hard day's work; we also passed by the local road-side restaurants overflowing with customers waiting to sink their teeth into some fresh lobster, crabcakes & corn on the cob; it was a picture one might see in a NE Yankee magazine, only it was real life, right before our eyes; windows down, the ocean breeze weaving in and out of our car, kids in the back giggling as the wind tickled their sun-kissed faces. Hello Summer, and goodnight moon.

I'm drooling with jealousy right now. I would love to need to wear a jacket while I play on the beach! I'd trade the smell of bbq for a lobster fest any day!
