The best of both worlds!

I love, love, love, the big, glamorous city but the ocean is magnificent and beautiful and the beach is where I truly feel at peace. Where else can you enjoy the sand between your toes and the warmth of the brilliant sun all while listening to the waves crash on the shore? I love to get on a bathing suit and a pair of sun glasses and lounge on the beach all day while reading a good book and sipping on an ice cold drink. I love to watch my husband gallop on the beach or play with him in the warm water (unless you are in the pacific ocean than the water isn't much fun because it's bitter cold). Lucky for me, NYC has the best of both worlds! I can enjoy the sights and sounds of the city and then within a half hour I can rest and relax on the beach. I want to stay here forever! This last Sunday (since this is the only day we have together) we packed some food, went to church and then headed to Jone's beach. It was beautiful weather and the company was fabulous. I could honestly live in a beach house with the ocean as my front yard for the rest of my life and be perfectly content and if it wasn't for Austin's mad passion for skiing, that's where we would be. Maybe I can turn his obession for snow skiing into one for water skiing? Anyway, I'll let the pictures from the beach do the rest of the talking...

mmm...salty kisses!





I heart Austin


Forever and ever...

They couldn't resist a good chicken fight...

The WINNERS!




Our sand turtle...







Muscles on the beach...


Hope you are all having a wonderful summer!

I love the black and white pic of you two kissing...that's so cute! I so will plan on going to spoon me when you get back! There is a place called luna berry of something in salt lake too...have you ever tried that one? I heard it was pretty good too. That's not our house that's for sale...it's a house my father in law fixed up and is trying to sale....no worries....if we end up moving I'll for sure let you know. That would be great if you guys could pick justin up from the airport....I'll talk to him and find out more about his plans. Is that ok?! Thanks again.
