Fun in the sun and tide pools

Today was so beautiful out.. I had to drag the kids around doing errands and when I got them done we headed to the beach. The tide was out and there were lots of tide pools to explore.

I don't know what this is.. I found two of them. This one was about 6 inches long. If anyone knows I would love to find out!

Here is a short video of the pools

Something in the sky

The girls and I went to the beach to try and see some meteors.. it was supposed to be a good night to see them. We didn't see many. The moon was full and the lights from the dockyard didn't help I am sure. We still enjoyed our time... we watched a cruise ship sail away and cuddled and talked. I love these moments, when we slow down. The kids think it is extra special because they are out later than normal and doing something that they don't usually do.
