92: a day of play






The cousins got to ditch school and hang out with us today! We decided to make it a North Shore day. Before the fun started, I had to get family pictures. It's never a welcomed event, but it had to be done! It was this very spot, 15 years ago, Jim and I took our engagement pictures. Who would have thought we'd be standing on the same stretch of sand with our 3 boys years later!
It was a perfect day..the waves weren't as big as the kids would have liked, but they made the most of it.  Stephen, Rebecca, and Skyler even went to jump off the rock. Rebecca and Skyler stayed on the lower portion, but not Stephen! He went full board.
A day on the north shore is not complete without a trip to Matsumotos shave ice! Jim and I tried to average at least 1 shaved ice a day..we only missed a couple days. After our treat, we drove to turtle beach and were not disappointed! There were sea turtles everywhere. A few even had come up to the beach to bask in the sun. We had an incredible day and wish the cousins could play the entire time with us!
