Grace's Vacation Part 3: A day at the Beach!!

Grace was so excited for her first "beach day"!!  It was a beautiful, sunny day and she couldn't wait to go out and have some fun in the sun!!

Grace, wearing her new bathing suit, rushed down the stairs to the beach along with Bon Bon and mini Grace.  "This looks like the perfect day to play on the beach!" she exclaimed "Woof Woof!" agreed Bon Bon, eager to play with Grace's beach ball.  "The ocean is sooo big!!" exclaimed mini Grace

Grace had sooo much fun!  She played in the sand, played fetch with Bon Bon and her new beach ball, and even explored some rocks on the beach!  "I love the beach!! Don't you Bon Bon??" "Woof Woof!" said Bon Bon ( but I think she wanted to play with the beach ball some more! ;-)

Splashing in the waves was the best part!  "Wheee!! Look at me!! I'm a mermaid!!" cried Grace happily

After playing in the water, Grace decided to take a dip in the pool.  "This looks nice!" said Grace "And I have it all to myself!!"

After her swim, Grace, mini Grace, and Bon Bon relaxed on the deck.  "Ahhhh" sighed Grace happily "This is so relaxing! I wish I could play on the beach every day!!"

 

Later...

That evening was our last night at the beach. As the sun was setting, Grace went for a walk on the beach.  The waves were rolling gently on the shore, and the sky was turning lovely lavender and blue colors.  

"I just love walking on the beach!!"

Grace felt so nautical!  She wanted to have her picture taken on the deck!

Grace and I were sad that our vacation was ending.  We had had so much fun together!  But I promised Grace that we would come back!  Grace waved to the ocean.  "Au revoir l'ocean!"  I can't wait to come back again!!
