On Thursday morning of our vacation week, Sea Colony hosted a sand castle making contest. Participants came down to the beach in the morning to create their sand castle, and judges came around a couple hours later to rate the sand castles. Awards were handed out that evening at a s’mores/bonfire night on the beach later that day. Lyla created a really cool sea turtle, and although she didn’t win an award for her sea turtle, she did win a prize that evening and a certificate for participating. We may be a little biased, but we thought her creation was really cool!
Mark and I sat out on our balcony every morning, drinking our coffee and watching the ocean. At nights we sat out with a glass of wine and watched the ocean and the beautiful sky each night. The beach is one of my favorite places - it’s fun, there’s plenty of activity, and there’s something so relaxing about just listening to the waves crashing on the beach.
On our last evening there, we took a few family pictures from the deck of the condo area, had some beach pizza and subs, and went out for our favorite fudge. The week went by quickly, but I always enjoy this time for our family. I feel very fortunate that we can take a week away to visit the beach and enjoy making some great memories together as a family. So, until next year Bethany Beach, see ya later!
The one bonus to our vacation week ending was that we could get back to see our sweet pup. She had stayed the week with her grandparents, and we knew she got spolied a ton, but we were so happy to have her back. She has lots of needs and requires a lot of attention, but we all sure do love and miss her a lot when we’re away!
