Hunting for Hermit Crabs on Tarague

Today we took the boys, and one of Darrien's friends down to Tarague Beach here on Andersen to hunt for Hermit Crabs. They had loads of fun! All their cousins have Hermit Crabs in Texas, so they decided once we got here they would like to have some too. We found some in all sizes and of course in all different shells. They were allowed to pick out 6 each for now, to see how it goes. They are so cute and very active, I just hope we don't lose any of them.

The wind was really blowing rough today compared to others, which made the waves very rough. Here are some pictures of our hunt.

Happy New Year Everyone!
It has already been a busy January. We enjoyed our Holiday Vacation by going to the beach, spending time with friends and ofcourse my favorite relaxing at home together playing the Wii.
Daniel, the boys, and I all went back to school or work on the 5th. It has been hard to get back into a routine, but I think we'll all be okay.
I have started running again! I have mapped out a route of 1.5 miles, and plan on working up to 3-4 miles a day. I have less on my plate since I am not working, so technically I have no excuse. This week Daniel has decided he would like to start running in the evenings with me too! Do you know how long I have been wanting him to run with me? Like our whole marriage! Which will be 13 years in April. Tonight was our first run together. He did great! I have something to look forward to in the evenings. Yeah!
Since I have so much time on my hands I have been reading like no other. I have read Twilight, New Moon, and 3 other books in the last two weeks. I can't wait to get my hands on Eclipse and Breaking Dawn to complete the series. They are very good!
The boys are looking forward to starting soccer in February. Be on the look out for pics of them playing.
