A Day at the Beach (in NJ but not the ocean)

This afternoon we decided to head to the beach. We decided rather than going to the ocean, we would check out a local beach on a lake. The sun was warm, but there was a little breeze. The water was nice, although it was cold when you were wet. The boys immediately checked out the water. A little cold air wasn't going to stop them.






It was nice that Paul and I didn't have to go all the way in the water with them, the way we would have in the ocean. Here the two enjoy a little snack in the water.




Rudy got to use his new boogie board, even without waves.


N then inherited Rudy's old board, that he's still trying to figure out how best to use.



I love the way cedar water looks (although I may not be saying that after Rudy's white rash guard isn't so white anymore!)



N blowing bubbles.



I had to prove we were there, too. And the only way to get a picture of us is the self portrait.


At the very end, Rudy tried to show N how to splash water at him. As soon as N made an attempt to do it, Rudy pretended he had been knocked down by it and jumped and dove into the water. N obviously loved his reaction and the two of them played like this for a good 10 or 15 minutes with N cracking up every time Rudy fell down. No matter what Rudy says about wishing he had a brother closer to his age, I think he's starting to enjoy the one he has right now.
