Day at the Beach

Today we went to the beach, and I took the kids to the Oregon Coast Aquarium, which is named 8 in the top 10 aquariums in the USA for kids! Beau was overtired and, quite frankly, very rude. He was bumping into other children in such a hurry to see all there was to see, and I brought this to his attention many times. What is wrong with this child? Is it just his age??? I know I have not let him get away with this in the past...drove me nuts! However...He loved the Sharks in the Passages of the Deep exhibit. I mean, LOVED THE SHARKS!
I took a lot of pictures, and planned to take more on the beach, but my memory card filled up and so as I was taking it out to place another in, something went wrong with my camera! I could not get a memory card back in, and I could see that 2 little prongs in the slot are bent. WHAT??? NO PICTURE TAKING? *...diaphoretic, panic setting in...* WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WITHOUT A CAMERA???
Okay, so beach was great! Lovely weather, sand in eyes, ice cold ocean, fly away kite, "buried treasure" hotwheels car lost forever...No, really, kids had a blast, and Mom got some tan in too. Not too bad for a couple hours on the beach. As for my camera...MUST GET FIXED ASAP SO I CAN POST PHOTOS!
