Julia and the waves...

Julia talked about going to the ocean for MONTHS! How she was going to swim in the ocean and play in the waves. That all went out the window once we got to the beach.


First day there, this is about as close as she would get to the waves.


Daddy decided to take her out a little.
She clung on to him with all her strength. (see her foot stick out of the water, she was really trying to stay out)

So by the end of day one, this is the farthest she would get to the waves. She really wanted water in her bucket for sandcastles, but did not want the wave to actually touch her! (Someone ended up having to get the water for her.)

By day two, she got braver, and would actually get her feet wet getting the water.

By day three, so was really getting brave.



It would have been nice to finish out our vacation, just to see how brave Julia would actually get. But alas, the hurricane had other plans.
