Life's a Beach!!!

During the summer we try to get up to NJ at least once a month.  This year with the craziness we weren't able to do it as much.  For our final trip we made sure that we hit up the Jersey Shore.  We always enjoy spending at least one day at the beach with my best friend Christa and her kids.  She had Jason who is almost 15 and then I had Kenzie who is 13.  We both took a little time off and then I had Cam who is 6 and exactly 10 months later Christa had Juliette now 5.


Even with the huge age gap all our kids get along really well.  Since they are both teenagers the big kids tend to go off on their own.  And even though they only see each other a couple of times a year the little kids pick up like they live next door to each other.  The beach is one of my favorite places especially the Jersey Shore.  I know what you are thinking and don't let those idiots on tv speak for us who are really from Jersey.  If you don't know just about all of them are from other states.  Their stupidity and lack of class should not reflect on those of us who were born and grew up in Jersey.  When we got the shore we like to go to Island Beach State Park.  It's quieter, cleaner and less populated then some of the other beaches.  The kids love to build sand castles, jump the waves and collect seashells.

 It was a perfect day.  It was warm but not too hot and the sun was out.   It was a perfect day to spend with the perfect friends.  I could just sit there soaking up the sun watching the kids play chatting the day away with my bestie for ever!
