April 1st at the Beach

Another busy day. Sam has been exhausting herself with all the activity, but try as we might, we couldn't convince her to skip the pool this morning. So, after a 4 mile run out and back along the berm with Ryan, we headed up to the pool for a short swim session before lunch. Then we loaded up the car and headed out to Wrightsville Beach. It's April 1st. It's NC. The thermometer was reading 74. Why not go to the beach?! Of course, down at the water the wind was whipping, and the water temperature was something ridiculous like 48 degrees. I had on as many layers as I could find in the car, and Sam kept saying she was freezing, but that didn't stop her (and us) from splashing along the water's edge, finding shells, doing a bit of digging and spending an hour+ on the beach. We took to running laps to warm up, but finally gave in and went to have an early dinner instead :-)
