Category: Sand Castles on the beach

every day we have is a blessing <3[caption id="attachment_562" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Tues Aug 21 2012 - my castle - In every way, give thanks <3 "][/caption]

It was a very cloudy, chilly day today.  I made chocolate chip cookies this morning, and did some cleaning, especially around Lu, Caesar, and Rica’s cage.

Here’s my small castle today.  (I liked it, even though it was small.  Then again, I am very easy to please.)

Adrienne is the oldest. at 8, of the 3 children. Riley is next, at 6, and Bridget is 4. They all worked on the castle together. Can you tell they liked making the steps best?

We had a destructor, who flattened castles sometime after building yesterday and today.  New castles do ‘spring up’, but it’s very difficult to pull up the sand again to the same height. 

Scarlett and Bella made the cutest ‘cat castle’ today!  Scarlett and Bella wanted Cecilia in the picture, too!

Every day, the castle of that day is my favorite.  This castle makes me smile

Cecilia is the youngest in a family of four children.  She has an older sister, and two older brothers.  She is very quiet (which is different from her siblings that I know!)  She very quietly built her castle, and then quietly went back to her dad, when she finished.
