Sand Flower Gardens & SANTA!!!

Today we decided to beat the heat and head for Wildwood. We picked a great day to go down the shore. We had a great time playing in the sand and the water. We were even lucky enough to have a surprise visitor. Just as we were getting ready to leave Santa Clause rolled up in his truck with his entourage of junior lifeguards and his brass band playing some Christmas carols!!! We were lucky enough to work our way through the hordes of children to get our picture with Santa.


This is the sand flower garden that Eric made for me. Before Tayeson found it there were half a dozen flowers in the garden. You can see the remains of one on the top right. Oh well.

Here we are with Santa. And you thought I was kidding didn't you? Check out Santa's shades! T was a little confused that Santa was at the shore. Honestly, I'm pretty sure we all were.

T having fun playing in the sand. Notice that he is completely covered in it.


He loves this little truck that Aunt Jeni gave him. Its good for so many different things.


See I told ya. Its great to ride in.


He was a little uncertain about sitting in it while there was water coming in from the bottom.


Here is T hard at play. Again, notice the evenly distributed coating of sand.

Here is T adding water to his wagon full of sand to make...

...this. Here is T's creation. He was so proud of himself. Of course Dad helped a little with the layout.

For those of you who have never been to the Jersey shore, what you're looking at is a group of three small planes that are hired to fly banners all up and down the shore. They're constantly coming by with different ads. My favorite was one for NutriSlim. They really know their audience.
