Revere Beach Sand Festival

This kind of stuff is the real reason my boys and Mr. Brown Sign visit the ocean. They LOVE finding little critters, dead or alive, in the sand of low tide.

But Aunt Rachael and her bevy of girls found a new reason to visit the beach.

"Find your matching swim suit and win!"
Just joking.

A sand sculpting contest.
This is the artists' combined entry that's done on Monday and Tuesday.

The contest ends at the end of the day, so he has quite a bit of carving left to do, but very impressive.

The boys' favorite entry.

Lovely beach texture. And design!

Miller brave enough to get the feet wet.

Sawyer listening to beach talk.

Cooper's sandball.

Porter on a borrowed boogey board.

Hunter carving out his hide away.

Tanner working on the tan.

Cooper's sand sculpting entry.

Mr. Brown Sign: two thumbs up.

We would be glad to share our Califorian beaches with you all. It must have been fantastic to see the sculptures designing their sand pieces. Amazing!
