Cape Cod 2011 - day #6

The weather has gotten a little cooler - but we decided to head down to the beach to take advantage of low tide and walk as far as we could.  We found lots of different sea creatures.



Back on the beach we tried to launch this kite - it would not stay up in the air and made such funny sounds looping in the air.
Back on dry land we picked up Daddy and Ezra after his morning nap and took two new kites up to a grassy area.  They went straight up.  Pa and I had a race to see which kite could get higher.  He won (his string was longer) - but when we were reeling them in Pa lost his grip and we lost the kite.  The spool got stuck up a tree and for the next 6 hours we were able to see Pa's kite flying above the cape.  It was really funny - I couldn't stop laughing all day!



In other news - our determined crawling baby has been getting faster and now has a new trick - pulling up to standing!  Here he is so proud of himself the very first time.
While Ezra was hard at work and Justin was napping - Seth, Pa and Jerald had a lively round of mini-golf.  In the afternoon the boys and Grandma and Pa went for a quick swim.


After Ezra was asleep - Grandma and Pa took over for the boys and Jerald and I ran down to the beach just in time to catch a beautiful sunset.
