I decided to play hooky this morning and we headed off to the beach in hopes of re-writing yesterday. We had a great time. We were almost there when Jacob pointed out a strange looking ship in Government Cut. It was a Pirate Ship much to Lilys delight and the pirates were all standing in the rigging. ( I thought they looked like birthday candles from far away which nearly caused hubby to drive the car straight into the ocean as he laughed so hard.) He sped up and drove towards the cut further down where we would be able to get out and Lily would really get a good look. There were photographers there so we asked what it was and they told us it was from Pirates Of The Carribean. All I can say is if I thought Johnny Depp was there I would have thrown myself into the ocean and pretended to drown.

After this excitement we headed down to South Beach and went for a swim and generally frolicked about on the sand.

Lily and Jacob found this tiny crab...of course Lily wanted to keep it for a pet. We really do need to get this child something soft and furry.

We had water fights in the ocean with buckets. Silly fun.

But now it is early evening and I have to go to work to make up for all that fun. We leave for the UK in a couple of weeks and before that we are heading away for along weekend so I really have no excuse for playing hooky other than I am a lazy bum who loves have fun with my family.
Hope you had a great Monday too.

what a great day, makes me quite jealous that I was at work while you were out playing with the Lil, Jacob, and those candle boat pirates!!!
Very cool ship. If you didn't tell us they were people I wouldn't know!
Glad you 're-did' your beach day. Looks like it was fun!
How cool that you saw that ship! Are sure Johnny wasn't on there?
Very cool ship. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun.
Oh yeah, I'd be playing hooky too!
Looks like sooo much fun, Dawn.
Yeah...had Orlando Bloom been there I would have definately pretended to drown!!!! LOL! Looks like you guys had a great time at the beach! Have fun in the UK!
Good for you for playing hooky! We definitely have to do that too. What a happy Monday you guys had.
Are you planning to visit Orlando anytime soon? Would love to meet.

Ahhh Johnny D.. Tooo hot!! Dh and I from the Lauderdale/Miami area.... I've got a real hankering for "south beach".... one of my favorite spots.
Jealous...

Ohhh... I wanna beach in my backyard too. Looks like the best time.
Florida needs the rain. The entire south does so although you were bummed about the rain, it was needed. We got a lot of much needed rain up here in Little Rock too. I wish it would rain more. I hate the heat!!!
Ahoy mates, I'd push you off the plank any day. Kidding. I'd hug you with my hook. Kidding. I'd let you scrub my deck. Not kidding.
At least if the rain continued, you had Noah's arc ready.
Wow...what a terrific day! There is nothing better than family time! ;)
It's not playing hookey when you are spending time with family!!! ENJOY!!
Trust me...those are the only kind of crabs you want to have! ;0)
You make fun out of anything and I just love that ability.
Glad someone got the rain...send it my way.
Jacob,
The hat comes off, repeat, off,when you go in the water!!
