A Day At The Beach

We decided we had had enough of the perma-gray weather we had been having, so one afternoon we had a day at the beach. I dug the swimsuits out and we got dressed up...and turned up the heat.

We spread out a blue blanket for our 'ocean'. I found three (only three!) stuffed animals that could plausibly live in the ocean and we tossed them on the blanket.

We spread out our beach towels, put on our sunnies and soaked up the sun. (Notice we brought all the dogs and cats to the beach.)

And we built sand castles. (See my sunshine in the background?)

And we even had a beach picnic for dinner.
