I Heard the Ocean Whisper...




What a gorgeous weekend we had here. Since Brady's B-day was canned due to weather and too many no shows because of family vacations, I decided last minute to load up the two youngest boys and one friend of Brady's, and we drove down the shore. Tanner stayed the night with a church friend, and had a ride to church, then lodged there another night. It is his home away from home.


We got to the ocean relatively easy; some traffic, but that was expected, so I just relaxed and made it through. As we got off the GSP for our beach exit, there were signs saying out spot was closed, too full, so we ventured further down and ended up finding a great little out of the way spot called Seven Presidents Beach. Such a beautiful place, nice ocean rock all over. Hardly anyone there too. Parking was a breeze.


Brady and his friend had a blast body surfing all day. Andrew and I played in the sand (built a castle, which he promptly stomped) the water, and I got some good sun and was able to relax for several hours (much needed) with my iPod. It was such a nice way to spend a day. We ended up staying much longer than planned. We eventually made it home by 9:00 p.m. A good time was had by all. No, Andrew has not had his right leg amputated :) Silly boy!
