Beaver Island Beach

Just a mere 20 min. jaunt from our house lies a fantastic state park called Beaver Island. And best of all, it has a beach. Now, it may not have the best sand and there may not be waves, but gosh darn, I love it. Since the boys have Tues. and Thurs. off (which they'll be using to study for the boards- but not last week!) we headed off to Beaver Is. with the Shaws to enjoy the sweltering 78 degree day. :)
We had a little picnic.....
(I usually tear off bites for him, but I had set it down and the next thing I knew he was eating like a big boy. So cute)

.... enjoyed the warm sand, except for Collin. I think he was boycotting it because it wasn't quite Crystal Beach sand.

Turns out, he wasn't a big fan of the water either.

But baseball... well that's a different story!

He was aiming for stands, and Dad's neck got in the way.

Well, we just had to have a photo shoot....
I love both their smiles in this one...

Disregard Gavin's obscene hand gestures, I don't know what his mother teaches him! :)

It took a little while, but Collin became quite the cheeseball. He's a sucker for attention.


Well, we may have jumped the gun on the beach trips, but it worked out in our favor, because they weren't charging entrance fees yet! Score! And it looks like it's getting up to 82 degrees next week, so the beach may be calling our name again soon.
