A great day at the beach

Today is the last night of the summer that's not a school night. Oh my. Are we ready to go back, you ask? By no means!

So we spent the penultimate day of summer vacation at Hendrick's Head with our very dear friends.

Look at these adorable kids! They all swam, kayaked, climbed the rocks, found sand dollars, built sand castles, and toasted marshmallows. It was the kind of day that childhood in Maine is all about.

And here's our faithful group of mom friends (with a Maggie photobomb). We did pretty much all of the things the kids did except build sand castles plus a lot more eating and chatting. We even brought beer.

Then Brigette's kids shot off some fireworks. Such a fun day!
