Treasure Hunt

On the last morning of our trip, my brother and his wife Stephanie lead the kids on a treasure hunt following an old map they "had found." Alexia had to use some of her navigation skills to figure out where on the beach it was then set out to find the X that marked the spot. Caleb unknowingly stood right on top of it as we cheered them on. They found it and dug it up gently around the sea oats! There were crayons and chocolate coins and Hello Kitty bracelets in the treasure box - we figured the pirates took them for their kids at home!

What fun that Aunt Stephy and Uncle Andy "cook up" so much adventure to enjoy! Glad you had "family time" on the beach...I am sure Katy missed you all, too!

What a fun idea! Will have to try it sometimes with my grandchildren.
