I'm here to report to you that it's been sunny for like, five entire days in a row!!
What is this, Texas?
We've done a lot of hikes lately, and Brad wasn't going to get off work early enough to do a kayaking trip, so the boys and I did the next best thing (which might actually be the first best thing): spending the afternoon at the beach!
The tide was out, the water was shockingly warm (for Alaska, anyways. I'm sure extended exposure will still give you frost bite and/or hypothermia), and the kids, for once, didn't want to go home.
Cam and I did a little tidepooling and found tons of starfish, bottom feeder fish and hermit crabs.
Calen did his favorite thing: building large fortresses near where the tide will come in and try to "defend" it from the tide with trenches and blockades.
Cam did his favorite thing and played with boats in the waves.
Then the boys (and their friends that they bumped into) found a tidepool that was so warm from sitting in the sun all day it felt like bath water, so they spent an hour playing in it.
