Surfing

These pictures are a bit late. My camera broke when we went to the beach, bummer! But luckily Lindsay had one, and she gave me a CD with them on it, so here they are. Josh was so happy this year when the kids learned to swim because that means they are old enough to learn to SURF. His dream come true. So we went twice this summer, once with the babies and even better, once with out. And by babies I mean Ty (and Kate which is why it was plural). Ty just loved the beach, he would eat the sand and play in it, but he was also mobile, which meant lots of dashing toward the water. Rylan is old enough to be afraid of it, and listen to instructions, but Ty was not, so as much as he loved it, it was a lot easier for me with out him there. It's already scary enough with the beach, but with a fast fearless tot, it's even more stressful.



Rylan loved the beach but wouldn't go near the water. He liked it when the other kids would take a break from the water and play with him, but even if he was alone that was Ok by him too.

Here's Will Ashlyn and Jayden learrning to surf together. One time I think they were all up, but of course we could never catch it.

Me and Lindsay.

Jayden surfing. They were both complete naturals. Got up over and over, and when they fell they'd get right back up.

Here's Ash. Josh practiced with them the night before in the living room, getting up.
