Our goal was to leave by 8:00am to head for Yorktown beach. We did pretty well, and got there plenty early to get a good spot. We set up camp and enjoyed a fun day at the beach. Brian went running, Ken went walking, and Jared and Nathan went fishing off the nearby pier. It was a little chilly at first, but soon warmed into a very pleasant day. The kids(and adults) loved building sandcastles and playing in the sand. We visited, picnicked, threw a football, and swam a little. Jared brought his net and the kids loved catching crabs, shrimp, and other creatures. Brian and Blake built an elaborate castle with tunnels. At the end of the day, they invited Brielle and Nathan to destroy it. It was so fun to watch those kids immerse themselves in destruction. It was also fun to watch Gabbi "scoot" in the sand, leaving a little slug trail wherever she went
A Princess in her castle.
After showering, we all went to dinner at TGI Fridays where they sang "Happy Birthday" to Gabbi, giving an early start to her birthday the next day.
After kids were in bed, we played "Apples to Apples" in our room.
Gabbi wasn't sure what to think when all the workers sang "Happy Birthday" to her.
