We love the beach!
Sand CastlesThis past Friday night I took the kids to see the awesome sand castles being sculpted at Hampton Beach, NH as part of the 13th Annual Master Sand Sculpting Competition, June 20 – 22, 2013.

The beach was buzzing with people from all over to see the awesome creations! The contestants are listed HERE
