Couldn't decide which direction to take this post in, so I'm going with all 3 thoughts...
1. Did anyone watch Olympic Breaking? Pretending like you're an Olympic Breaker might be my new favorite beach activity. I've never laughed so hard and both my kids got really into it.
2. I love candid(esque) photos. In fact, on many vacations I've envisioned a great photo and spent considerable time convincing a stranger that we aren't going to look at the camera and I just need them to snap a few photos of our family looking un-posed. So imagine my surprise when a random guy walks up to us on the beach and says we look like a Chick-fil-A ad. He asked if he could take our picture. After I handed him my phone he said "no, just go back to eating, look natural and don't look at the camera."
While it's always my dream to have candid photos with my kids...eating photos are never a good look. As expected, it's a terrible picture but now I can't help but love it because it was so random. Also, Miller was 100% convinced he was planning to steal my phone so he said he "watched him closely while pretending to look away and be interested in eating."
3. We live minutes from the beach. Why do we never go? Putting this in writing for accountability. We WILL start going to the beach often!
