Down by the River

I recently learned from a group of women at our Mommy & Me group that there's a small beach alongside the river in Crestview. Nothing fancy, but the other mom's liked how the water was about ankle deep, so it was a good place to take a variety of aged kids. We decided to try it out Saturday. I won't tell you how Cheyna and I drove there on Friday with the intent on going, but seeing how desolate it was got creeped out and being the chickens responsible parents we are left and went elsewhere. We figured we would let the dad's scope it out with us. Of course once we were there Saturday with the guys we felt kind of silly, but whatever. It really wasn't much to look at, like I said, just a shallow river with a small beach area, but the kids LOVED it! It's great to have something so close and I'll definitely be taking Nolan again.

A view of the beach and river. It did get deeper in parts, but the space in front of the sand is only ankle deep.

Did Brian almost fall in a hole to the right just out of camera view? Oh my gosh Nolan is so brave and fearless!!!!!! Maddy is just doing that stuff at 6 yrs old. She went on a 3 hr float at C9R and loved it. MISS YOU !!!!!!!!!
