JAX Beach

I have been meaning to get to JAX beach all summer long.  Well, I had actually planned on making it a bi-weekly ritual, but between morning sickness, much needed nap times and daily household chores, I hadn't made it there yet.  Matt was off this past Friday so we packed the car and headed to the beach.  We had been to St. Augustine beach a few times, but JAX is less touristy since it stretches for miles.  We had so much fun.  There were little sandbars the girls could stand on and also pools of water that stretched up the beach so Matt and I got to relax just a bit while the girls splashed in the makeshift pools.  Makaela spent hours collecting shells and getting Dad's approval on ALL of them.  Mia had fun digging in the sand and dumping it all over the place.  She even loved chasing all the sea gulls.  It was noted that we have to do this more often.  It's odd moving from Hawaii where we went to the beach all the time, to FL, where there is a beach, but we rarely go.  I think the difference is that we don't have our friends to go along with.
