Seals and Cromer

We had a fun day with friends on June 30th. We headed up to Blakeney to see the seals again. When we got there the kids found this awesome mud to play in! By the time I caught up to them they had already been running in it, so I just let them. We went with the Hatch Family, Constance Toaw(Sister Towel according to Alissa) and we were watching the Ingersoll kiddos, so we had them too. Fun group!

 After we got the mud all cleaned off we got on the boat to go see the seals. The kids loved the boat ride, especially when the waves splashed them. They would laugh and laugh!

 After driving by all the seals they took us to this Island and dropped us off for a while. The kids had fun playing hide and go seek and finding things on the beach.

 After we got off the boat we drove the Cromer beach. It was pretty late in the day and not super hot, but the kids got in the water anyway!

 We didn't end up leaving the beach until about 9:30. We had an hour drive home and all the kids fell asleep. Not the best idea on a Saturday night when everyone needs baths for church for Sunday. Blake did good though. I had a meeting Sunday morning, so he was on his own. We gave most the kids baths on Saturday night. Sunday morning I left at 7:30 and Blake made it on time for church with all 7 kids! I was impressed.

This is how Broden and Avery were sleeping when we got home. They were exhausted!
