I already mentioned how HOT it has been and while visiting the coast is a favorite fall past time, tradition is hard to break. So... Liam and I took a day trip to Topsail Island, it's not Galveston but so similar and holds enough cherished memories with my family to merit the four hour drive to and from. We've noted all the rest stops from here to there, the Seafood markets, the coffee shops, the bakery and now have our favorite public beach access programed into the GPS system. Can you tell I have intentions of making this a regular occurrence? You will find us at public beach access #8 because this is the point along the drive that Liam announced "We're here" despite my attempts at turning into beach access #1 through 7. The day was BEAUTIFUL and I have missed that feeling of contentment, that feeling of being home and my dad. We built sandcastles, played baseball, jumped the waves, collected shells, ate lunch, napped, walked, watched pelicans, shrimp boats, and chased birds, and dug up clams. Not once did we get in the water! Oh, well. Swim lessons are progressing due to mom and dad's diligence and Liam one day will love the water as much as Ethan.... we hope :)
Liam has moved up a class at school and has officially begun his pre-school experience. With fabulous teachers, fantastic learning environment and LOTS of planned activities we are looking forward to the school year with our little learner!
