A few of you might already know this, simply Anthony is an builder. Sometimes he has to get out of town to survey a building that he is working on. (Just go to mensurate walls & such. He generally re-designs the insides of  existing buildings. "Don't knock down this wall or it all falls down." kinda stuff.) Well this weekend he has to travel down to Virginia Beach for i of these surveys.

Since it is virtually a 4 hour. bulldoze to go down there, he can stay the dark if he wants, and they'll pay for the hotel and reimburse the miles he drove down & back. Then he asked me if I wanted to become forth.

At present I don't really fancy the embankment. I'chiliad much more of a pool person. Sand is no friend of mine, and I never seem to make information technology through a trip without a bad example of sunburn. (No affair how hard I try!) Merely, if someone else is willing to pay for my whole family to have a "twenty-four hour period at the beach" who am I to say NO?!

I figure this way I tin can go some pictures of Reli at the sea, and non feel too bad if I don't wanna go nosotros don't brand information technology back there for a few years. In my defense there is a Splash Down H2o Park right downwards the route, so she can still have fun playing in the water. (I'k not a complete downer. lol)

The last fourth dimension we went to the beach. Nigh three years ago on our honeymoon. Overnice, France.

So, to get ready for this big adventure, I decided to brand Reli a pair of flip flops. I say make, considering the kid has the fattest fiddling feet! She is likewise at that stage where one human foot is significantly larger than the other, so no matter what I buy, nothing will fit. (I really hope they even out one day!)

I took my inspiration from Brand It and Dear It's flip flop series that'southward been going on. Of course, I didn't have whatsoever of the right colored knit, and not a lot of fourth dimension to detect some, so I kinda fabricated a hybrid of a few of her flip flop versions.  (The shoes but had to lucifer Reli's swimmy arrange! Right?)

I started with these adorable human foot shaped bottoms that I got at Michael'south for $one. Score! And so yous know I as well got a size up for next year and 2 for myself (not pes shaped). Then mixed a little of this with a piffling of that, a touch of hot mucilage, and ended upward with these!

Now if I can just get Reli to keep them on her feet, we'll exist in concern!

Better go buy some sand toys I guess.

Thanks for visiting!
