Cousins at the Beach

Jillian was thrilled to have Rielee at Cousins at the Beach days.  The first day they spent a lot of time chasing waves when it was nice without the wind.
It was surprising how long Jillian kept playing Monopoly with Rielee, Auna, and James.  Somehow James managed to get all the girls' money by trading.  Jillian was willing to trade any property for some money.  Lessons in life.
 Daddy had built a wind break for Bridget to get behind when the wind picked up.  We couldn't figure out what she was doing as she would put her face and fingers close to the sand and just wiggle her fingers.  It must have felt nice.
 On Sunday Daddy and the big kids dug deep holes in the sand and made tunnels between them.  On one end of the hole the girls made their own kitchen.  They had a microwave, oven, refrigerator, and pots of something cooking.  They even stuck sticks in the sand for coat hangers. 
 Tierney left early before she got to go to the beach.  This moat wasn't very big but they all got on top, even Sophie.
