We decided pretty last minute to go to the beach for the weekend. We were going to camp but no camp fires are allowed in Arizona right now (plus the beach is a thousand time better). So we left and told the kids we were going to see a big rock. The biggest in the world! And that we might sleep there. Brian's plan backfired when they were actually excited for the rock. So the top picture is the random rock we stopped at halfway there and the kids were quite impressed (I know, so funny!). This rock was in front of some war history museum so we went through it as well. It was pretty fun. Then it was time to go. The kids were sad to leave the rock. We finally arrived at the hotel and admitted to the kids we tricked them and we had another surprise. Then we headed for the beach. It was pretty cold (downer) but thankfully Brian found some crabs to save the day. They were all over catching crabs-the bigger ones in the rocks and the tiny ones that came up on the beach with the waves. I stuck a bucket in the water and caught a bucket full of those tiny ones while Brian sat there digging giant holes to try and capture one. It was funny. Brian took each boy into the water to enjoy the waves but they weren't super thrilled about it. So he stuck to the crabs and building sand castles. Harlee basically cried the whole time because she had sand on her feet. She kept saying "I want to go home and wash my feet". I just laughed the whole time. We decided the beach was not worthy of 3 days of fun so we left and planned for our next day...
