Tide Pools

We took the kids down to the tide pools a couple days ago. It was high tide, so there were really no tide pools to explore, but they had fun shell-collecting, wave-running, and rock-throwing. I was a nervous wreck... The beach is surrounded by cliffs, and the waves were starting to break on the only staircase in and out. So I was picturing Ryan and I with kids on our shoulders, having to be rescued. But we all survived. :)
