MOM, Caroline, and I were down at the beach for the afternoon. Mom was using this time to catch up on her novel and tan while I was stuck making sure Callie didn't swim too far into the ocean. I wore a pretty pink bikini and shorts, I wasn't as pale as when the summer had just begun. Callie was building sandcastles for the little snails she found along the shore.
