A Taste of the Beach

We arrived safely at the beach yesterday afternoon around 2:30. The kids did great on the trip, and Sage and Jaggar did great, too! ;) I've got video that I'll upload of that later. Everyone is so excited to be here, and for good reason: the view is breathtaking. We're praying the weather clears up for us because rain has been trying to set in just like at home. We'll make the best of it regardless.

Jaggar (kind of) wore headphones the entire ride down here. He's obsessed with Tangled right now, and I didn't particularly want to hear it the entire ride down. I had to do some turning around to convince him to leave them on his head, but we didn't listen to the movie until right before we got here, so we were successful for the most part.
And then we arrived! We wasted no time before we got in the water...well, SOME of us wasted no time.
We were old pros from last year and loved jumping into the waves.
Jaggar has reacted NO LESS than exactly how I thought he would: with absolute hate and fear. Ha, he has screamed and wrapped his entire body around us every time that we've tried to put him down. He's getting somewhat better, but it has to be on his terms. Can't imagine where that came from. In this picture, he saw an "ug-ee bird," or "ugly" bird, which was a seagull.

So, I'm fully aware that from the back my bathing suit makes it look like I have nothing on. Yes! Mission accomplished. :)
We found this bottle and it reminded me of the song "message in a bottle."


Beautiful
He's still so unsure.
