As you know I have been ill since Saturday and Brooke and I have spent most of our days in pajamas at home. Well today I had to drive to the Virginia Beach Convention Center to get my race bib for Sunday (yes, I’m still contemplating running sickness and all). Since we were a mile from the beach I decided since we both had a 2 hour morning nap to take Brooke to the sand after the expo. Here she is playing at the sand playground on 1st street in her new shoes since she prefers to be on her feet these days.

When I put Brooke in the sand I should have expected her first instinct would be to taste the sand. I am sure this is the first of many sand tastings we will have this summer.

Erin Go Bragh!
