Avalon Shores

Another successful trip to the Jersey Shore.  Avalon was actually listed in the top 10 family beaches in the US this year and we know why.  We had a great time catching up with old friends and we really didn't miss a beat, despite it being almost a year since we last saw everyone.  It was an awesome trip!

Everyday shortly after we arrived at the beach Anna would ask for a snack.  On this day she was told she had to wait, and as you can see she wasn't excited about that prospect.

For my birthday the Murgatroyds gave me a kite.  It really was fitting, as every year they bring a kite to fly on the beach.  I had a lot of fun flying my dog kite and understand why the Murgatroyds think it's a fun beach activity.

Jonah loved being at the beach.  He loved playing with the toys in the sand about as much as he loved playing in the water.  He really is a beach baby!

As a classic beach activity, I was buried in the sand.  They tried to turn me into a merman, but it's kind of hard to see.  It was fun to be buried in the sand, but I was pretty worried about getting sand in my eyes.

Jonah made the sand burying a bit tough because he kept crawling all over me.  My favorite part of it all, breaking out of the sand.
