We went to the beach with mom and had a great time and great weather. N. Myrtle Beach is where my mom’s waterway condo is located, so we frequent the OD area of the beach and it was absolutely packed. Thank goodness Tommy and Amy would go over early and set up our canopy to mark our spot. There was traffic too but we just stay in our little area and get around just fine. Jayden really wore herself out on Saturday, she loves to dig in the sand and run back and forth to the water to get buckets and then pour them into digging sand, which is great with me because the sand is less likely to become airborne. This was Carden’s first trip to the beach, to be truthful he didn’t play much in the sand because it wasn’t too long before he had it all over his face and too close to his eyes, so he would sit in our laps until he fell asleep in “the bucket”. Also at OD area they have a mobile amusement park that features kiddy rides. We went there one night and Jayden rode the flying dragons, tea cups, race cars that slide out in corners, Berry Go Round, the carousel 2 times and to my hesitant approval the kiddy roller coaster, that ended up being too rough and had the operator stop it. We watched fireworks at Calabash, Carden loved them but Jayden is still not sure about the loud bang, but did get a few oooh and aaah’s our of her though.
