After helping Sister and her Mister move some things into Some Beach, we spent the rest of the afternoon dockside back at Mother and Daddy-O’s.
Honey and the boys had the best time fishing.
They caught a sting ray and put her in a bucket. Well, a few minutes later she gave birth to two babies!!!!!!! The littles were literally beside themselves. And now I can say that not only have I seen a roach give birth (did I ever share that horrific story?), but a stingray too. Mother and babies were all thrown back in and swam happily away :-)
Next up on the strange catches of the day … baby shark. Ew.
Elsa adores being down at the dock. I think she was made for the salt life.
As we were heading in for supper we watched a porpoise playing happily in the marsh.
These are the kind of days summer was made for!

Okay. That is "officially" & totally COOL! Your family seems to really enjoy so many neat experiences!
Best,

P.S. I'd like to invite you to pop over to my blog for a visit. As a fellow blogger, lover of Coca-cola, mother, teacher, and lover of ballet – we seem to have soooo much in common!
wow! sounds like a great day!
How awesome! My boys would've loved that. I agree, perfect summer days. xo
That Elsa is just too cute! It looks like she is fitting into your family perfectly. And that's really wild about the stingray! What an experience for the boys. Enjoy your Sunday!

Both a roach and a stingray giving birth in one lifetime??? Wow! :). Seriously though, time at and on the water is just the best! Enjoy the rest of your visit. :)
How fun!! I bet the boys were beside themselves! Very cool. Enjoy this last little bit of summer :)!
We just left Jekyll Island so the background of the marshes in your pics were making me drool! I consider the barrier islands of Georgia the most beautiful place on earth…where the sea and the south meet! My husband caught a stingray on that same island many years ago and was stung by the tail. He was in a world of hurt! The fire rescue, after treating him, basically told him to "go home and get drunk"!! It. Was. Awful.
I think the stingray birth is awesome…the cockroach not so much… My son would have totally argued that we should keep the baby shark! :)
Wow….to see the stingray give birth is incredible! What an amazing place. I just love the marshes….
