Miami

We drove through the night to get to Miami to see Brielle, Jeff, Austin, and Bennett.  After a much needed night sleep, we hit the beach.  The water temps were in the 70s, which was too cold for me, but not for the kids.  The air was in the 80s.  The kids played in the sand a lot and had a wonderful time.  Alycia's kids hadn't been to the beach for a really long time, so it was exciting and new.  My kids could live at the beach, so we had a great afternoon.
