Fun at the beach

Here are some shots of our time at the beach this last week. The girls have been practicing for the Menehune contest -- the keiki contest that was this weekend, and when they weren't out in the surf they were having a BALL boogie boarding in the shore break. Even Elysse was having fun getting tumbled and thrashed around in the shore break, and would go back out for more fun!

We were all a bit sad to find out that all the girls' divisions would be on Sunday, since we don't surf on Sunday. It made me sad for the girls who have been practicing and have been so excited for this event and now they won't be able to perform. But I am proud of their commitment to keep the Sabbath day holy and how maturely they handled it.
