ocean camping

Adventures in day camping!  I'd never heard it called this but I kind of loved the idea.  You get a camp site for the day, setup chairs and cars there, then head to the beach for the day.  We played in the sand, water, more sand, flew a kite, and ate snacks.  When it was getting close to dinner time we drove back to camp.  A fire was started and chili was made.  You get all the fun adventure of camping at the beach, but get to drive home and sleep in your own bed.  Kinda loved it.

This adventure took place at Ocean City State Park (with a stop off in Ocean Shores for salt water taffy!).  Sugar sweets!
The kids love the beach as much as I do.  So fun to see all the "littles" playing and having fun together.
Ava looks tiny and in awe of the horses!

I could fill up an entire post with these guys...they were SO sandy and didn't mind a bit. They kept trying to run away. No fear, just kept getting farther and farther down the beach.

The last image is my FAVORITE of all the pictures.  Ava and Lucy are adorable playing the sand....then you take a closer look and see two little boys streakin down the beach.

Fun at the beach...
