Mom, Kacy, Alston, Mel, the girls and I headed down to the beach for Mother’s Day this year! (Sorry, Kate, we missed you!) McCanless and Mary Clare loved being at the ocean! Mary Clare even wore herself out and took a nap!! McCanless made lots of new friends, flew a kite on her own and “grew” a few more freckles.

It was hard to catch many photos of McCanless. She was too busy making friends and splashing in the waves with her Aunt Kacy!

I was impressed with McCanless’ kite flying ability. Of course she wanted NO help, but she got it to fly up immediately, and kept it up, and figured it out all on her own! She knew exactly what to do when it dipped down to the ground.

A rare moment.

Mary Clare in her own little ocean…

I know this is sideways, I turned my camera to get this angle, but forgot that I couldn’t rotate it for the web!
Sorry!

Below is my crazy McCanless jumping in the waves…
