It’s a shore thing….

We had a fun Saturday night date – we met up with the Todd family and took the kids to Old Orchard Beach for some pizza, fries and rides.  It was a hot evening = we might have melted a little but the kids had a blast. Alec gets along so well with the girls and for the most part can tone down his boyself to a manageable level. Even in public. Usually.

Can I forever love this picture? A picture where they are smiling and laughing…priceless.

After the kids rode the rides and we saw Elvis..yes Elvis (you never know what you’ll see in OOB)

we then headed out onto the beach. It was a beautiful night- still very warm and the tide was low. Nearly perfect.

They stayed dressed for all of 2 seconds maybe?!  Possibly the funniest thing about this underwear shot of Alec is that he usually wears boxers but on this night he was sporting his “tighty whities” –looks sort of like a Speedo huh?  Possibly trying to fit in with French Canadians and their beach attire? Thankfully his was the only speedo sighting.

After we got them dressed again- we walked back to the car. Faye –being the rock star that she is- stopped and pressed her nose against a bar window to watch a live band playing. The kids rocked out on the sidewalk and we grown-ups might have had a few moves of our own. The base player even walked out to jam on the sidewalk for a minute with/for the kiddos. Very cool.

We got home and I couldn’t help but thinking how lucky we are – this is one of those nights that the kids might remember fondly for a long time to come.

We just raised the bar on fun summer nights.
