Jetty Island

Our family worked hard to get our house and yard in order this morning, so we decided to go to Jetty Island as an afternoon treat. The kids and I had been there a few years ago, but Ryan had never been there and was pleasantly surprised at how enjoyable it was. It is a sandy beach on a man-made island and the water is less than three feet deep for nearly a quarter of a mile so the kids can wander out as far as they would like. We were there at high tide which provided a lot of water fun close to the beach.

Everyone had a good time. Ryan buried the kids in the sand. The boys and Olivia liked playing in the water with driftwood and a frisbee. Even Audrey wandered down to the water and sat in the tide as it came in. She loved the water and watching her siblings play. We love building memories like this.

While we were at Jetty Island, Ryan buried the kids in the sand. Audrey thought she would help and so we wanted to get a cute video of it. As a bonus, we were reminded that we also have to reteach our children tolerance in social situations, namely a crowded beach. Listen to Carter...
