Just another day on the beach!!

Sometime we all need a break. On this afternoon, we had a last minute to esscape for the day. We had all been cooped up and getting ready for exams. I grabbed a bunch of the kids and we took off to relax a little by the beach. Sometimes we take the whole herd and other times we take small groups, so that we have more one on one times with the kids.

There are big almond trees near the beach where we swim at. Many of the kids enjoy setting up an almond shop. For the rest of us, where they crack open the nuts and then divide them up evenly amongst us all. It's always such a treat to get a super sandy almond forced down your throat. If it were not for the huge smiles that follow the sandy almonds, I may never eat almonds ever again, hahaha.....
