The Beach House - Sea Calls and The CRAB!

Luke and Daniel discovered the swing - good for a long period of fun.

The kids ran up and down the stairs both inside and outside. They ran through the house and checked out every room. They had a wonderful time burning all that energy!

Abby helped Pop-pop in the kitchen. Rich cooked all the evening meals.

Jason read to the kids.

Pop-pop read to the kids.

Mark read to the kids.

Mark and Lars tried to have a serious game of chess.

After dinner Daniel swiped the board clean, thus ending the chess match.

Lars helped Leah hold baby Siena.

THE CRAB

In the evenings the guys would gather some flashlights and the older kids and take them to look for sand crabs on the beach. The first night they brought home the crabs to show Pop-pop. They had three very large crabs in their sand pail.

 Pop-pop reached into the pail to touch one of the crabs and it crawled up his hand and jumped out of the bucket.  

A perfect camouflage...

"Here, Crabby, crabby"

The next night they let the crabs go on the beach before they returned to the house.
