A Day at the Beach!


I've had a lovely day today! I was childminding, and as the forecast was great and we were going to Dervaig anyway for toddler group in the morning, I decided to pack a picnic and take the kids to the beach in the afternoon!

We had a fantastic afternoon, the kids were all very well behaved and none of us wanted to leave, but we had to get home. I took loads of pictures of the beach and the sky and the sea, though, and I'm trying to put together my first scrappy pack of goodies!! It's a whole new, exciting project! :) Not sure when it'll be finished though as I'm hopefully going to be busy this weekend as it's meant to be sunny again!

We spoke about going camping but I'm not sure if it will happen. The place where we'd normally go has public toilets but I found out today that they're currently out of order, which isn't really a problem for me & Adam (we used to camp rough a lot ;) ) but not so good for Alexander! We might still do it though. I'm going to have to clean the house in the morning I think so that we can go out in the afternoon and maybe go camping too! :) Just going to play it by ear though!!


Today at the beach I remembered again how incredibly lucky we are to live where we do.... when it's wet & foggy I don't appreciate it nearly as much ;) but when the sun shines it is amazing. We are only a half hour drive away from Calgary Beach and as you can see from the photos, it's amazing!! And I spotted a golden eagle sitting in a tree at the side of the road on the way to the beach, and one flying overhead on the way home! Amazing!! :)


Anyway, here are a couple of photos... I must be off to bed though! :)

G'night! :)
