Yesterday was rainy and yucky, so we decided to go to Best Buy and the Mall. Simon had earned money before he left France - and the money was burning a hole in his pocket! He bought himself a digital camera and an ipod, and new tennis shoes. When we got home from the mall, the sun was starting to peek out so Tim took them all for another ride on the banana and the tube while I made cupcakes for Simon's birthday. Chocolate cupcakes with homemade peanut butter icing - and they were fabulous! OK, OK....I confess. I cheated a bit with the cupcakes - Betty Crocker helped me out a bit. But the icing was homemade, and nobody knew the difference!
Unfortunately, we couldn't find any birthday candles in the house, so I stuck an old house candle in! Ha ha ha!!
Today was gorgeous...so we hit the beach at Little Talbot Island. It was an absolutely beautiful day - a nice breeze, not too hot, nice waves so the kids could body surf....
Looking for shark's teeth....
Re-applying sunscreen....
