"Christmas Day Walk At the Beach"

This will be a goodbye post to the "Christmas of 2010" .  Hard to believe a another year has gone by !!
All the Christmas in the past have been good,but a walk on the beach at the ocean on Christmas day was a first for me, and I so thoroughly  enjoyed it especially watching my grandson in all his usual enthusiasm,run do cartwheel,skip flat rock across the water.. yes, and even lay on the beach like it was a summer day, and oh...he had no "gloves" on and no "socks" which didn't surprise his Mom at all ...in fact "I wasn't that surprised either" since I raised two daughters who where pretty much like that too...I guess I can't say much since I am kinda like that.  : }



"Skipping Rocks"


"Treasure"
...not so great for the lobster men whose traps wash ashore!!

 

It was mid- afternoon when we where there!
Sun was in and out of  darker clouds !!



"Wow" He is still for a change!!
Musing!!





"Tempting his fate"











"Precious"

 







Yes.. it was a Nerf gun Christmas!


Mom made it through yet another Christmas!!


Blast from the past!!

Here I am with that "Mom" ( my daughter) on my lap,
and oldest daughter who is the Mom of my
22yr old granddaughter on the chair arm!!

Lots of Memories along the path to today and hopefully
more to be made in the year to come ...

Wishing all my blogging friends and there families
a "New Year" full of "Hope, Happiness, and Health "!!

    I was enjoying the beautiful sky and beach shots, but that "blast from the past" shot is a real winner :-) Love the hairdo and suit. Old photos are so much fun.

    I love that picture of the monkey and I on the beach! :)

    Hard to believe I was once that little, and cute.

    And no wonder there's a hole in the ozone layer - how much AquaNet was required to maintain that 'do?
