During our vacation we spent a wonderful day at Lake Whitney State Park. They have a nice sandy beach (for a lake beach) and you have to walk a long way into the water before it gets deep. Erin and Garrett had a great time playing in the sand, even though we didn't bother bringing any beach toys. I thought they would spend more time in the water, but apparently the sand is much more interesting than the water. Here are some pictures:
Garrett tried to eat some sand. If you look closely you can see sand on his tongue.
Daddy had to help him get the sand out.
We had a lot of fun at this beautiful state park.
