Day at the Beach

yesterday, wes and i decided to pack up the truck and head to the beach. and that's just what we did. we packed a great lunch and snacks and took off. we had the best time. it was needed. wes has been working 12-13 hours a day and comes home extremely exhausted. i'm not working right now so i am completely bored. i wanted to treat him to a relaxing day. first thing we see when we get there is a dead jellyfish on the beach. then we took for the water and i found another one 5 feet from me. let's just say, wes had to do some convincing to get me in the water again. i've never seen one so close before. let me say that again. i've never seen a jellyfish before.
what is it about the beach that you get so tan? i can lay out at my house for 1 hour and get barely anything, but at the beach...i lay out for 30 and get dark. i love it. we love being together and it was the perfect day!
