Hi! Checking in from the beach. I don't think I realized just how much our entire family needed this until I was walking on the beach yesterday looking for shells and I realized I wasn't stressing about anything. Nothing. Nada. I was just enjoying the sand beneath my feet and the sun at my back and having no obligations except to put one foot in front of the other and enjoy myself. I don't look for the most perfect shells, but the most interesting. I think they're the most fascintaing things and I love the different hues and colors and shapes--they're incredible. I'm not much for laying on a beach towel but we've had a great time playing beach badminton, shell seeking and splashing about in the water. Our first day here we all had to get henna tattoos.

Ya know--the family that tattoos together, stays together. 
And last night we went to the dog tracks which made me and The Girl very homesick for your greyts at home. 
I started the morning with a totally self-indulgent massage at the spa and this afternoon or tomorrow we're all going to try parasailing. I'll definitely check back in if I'm still in one piece after that.
