Beach Bums

We're really pretty spoiled when it comes to living close to such a beautiful lake shore, the Indiana Dunes State Park is incredible, and luck for us, we're only 20 minutes from home to sand! This was really our first official trip for the sole purpose of soaking up the sun (me), play (Josie), and relaxation (Ed). There were tons of people, but that makes it all the more fun to find the perfect spot to camp out on, close enough to the water, but far enough away that we could relax and not worry about Josie running in.



Ed always finds reason to dig a big hole, this time it was one big enough for Josie to stand up in and be buried to her neck. Josie thought it was pretty fun digging and trying to climb out too.



It was a beautiful day to be at the beach, and even considering all the sand we brought home with us on our bodies and belongings, it was a lot of fun and I'm actually hoping to do it again this weekend. And by far, the best idea we had for the day was bringing the wagon along! We weren't sure it was going to go through the sand very well (it did just ok...) the parking lot was packed and we were forced into over flow parking, with all are gear in tow AND Josie... this was a brilliant idea and the wagon will go with us every time now!
