Tyler's kids at the Beach

I have been married now coming up on 32 years.   When at the beach and not prepared to swim the words, "I promise I wont get wet" have often been heard.  I am glad to see Tyler's children have kept the tradition of being unable to keep that promise.  They had a blast.  It did my heart good to see my grand children have so much fun.
Doing his best to stay dry.


Athena attempting to keep her promise.











Standing at the edge of temptation.

Darius tempting fate. 

















Athena trying to keep from getting wet.

































































Athena and Darius challenging the water while Ari is going above and beyond to keep from getting wet.  Check out Ari's feet.  She is doing her best to keep above the water line.

Just can't seem to keep away

















Too much fun
















The taste of temptation.


















Maybe if we hold hands we wont get wet.

OK, that didn't work

Darius wasn't as stable as Athena.

All right,  we're wet no sense in wasting this time.



















Total capitulation.
















Athena not wanting to go.

















Hanging on till the last moment.
















I stayed dry and was a good girl.






















I got totally wet.  Thank you Aunt Thyci for the coat










































Athena in the top left still holding to the belief she can still stay.

















Tyler, Alexis, Kalista in back.  Darius, Ari and Athena in front.  A good day had by all.
