A (freezing) day at the beach

I decided to risk the dodgy weather today and take the kids down to the foreshore, which is about a twenty minute drive away.

It truly was freezing, I was in long pants, boots, and four layers on top, including a woolly jumper/jersey/sweater (whatever your lingo is, hehe), a windproof jacket and a scarf.

The little guy seems to feel the cold more than his older brother, so as soon as we hit the sand he needed the extra fleece I'd brought along for his brother on the off chance he'd be cold. Or admit to being cold might be more accurate.

They started off rugged up like this...

Quickly progressed to this..

And this...

Bit of a snack...

More water play...

And OF COURSE, the big fella was nearly down to his birthday suit by the end.

And I was ready with towels, dry clothes and snacks when the inevitable melt down from being wet, sandy and FREEZING happened at the end.

Roll on summer!
