Mulberry Street: Beach Trip part 6

"And To Think That I Saw It On Mulberry Street"

There is this great Dr. Seuess book about a boy who walks to school everyday down Mulberry Street. All he ever encounters are normal things and he wants to see extraordinary things so he can have a good story for his dad when he gets home. So the book is made up of this boy's imaginative exaggeration of the normal. Great things that all build upon each other to end with a grand parade. The boy finally realizes all the exaggeration is too unbelievable and decides to just tell his dad what he really saw on the way home-the normal, everyday stuff. That's what we are sharing in this blog, so we thought Mulberry Street a fitting name. We sometimes feel no one wants to hear about our everyday lives, but hopefully you do. Enjoy!

Beach Trip part 6

We had a really great trip. These are the last few pictures. There are a few more things we did and forgot to get pictures of. Aunt Hali, Uncle Daniel, Annalee, Aunt Sarah, and Uncle Jason all came for the day on Saturday. We had fun, especially when Dad and Uncle Daniel were holding Joseph and Annalee and saw a shark :)
We also went crab hunting several times. One night, Mom, William, and Papa Bill went hunting and caught the trip's record catch of 16 crabs. William also discovered he loves to eat shrimp and crab!

Did I mention that William LOVES the beach? He spent most of his time snorkling on the edge.

Please enlarge this so you can see their faces! We thoroughly enjoyed the trip to Suveneer City. Joseph found a monkey he calls "Munchky", Lily got a necklace, and William got a sea net with a sand dollar to hang his crab shells on his wall at home.
