South Padre Island ...part 2..surfing

We did not plan on boogie boards. We thought Hailey was too young. For a day or so we saw these boogie boards in the garage where we parked for our "house" (as Hailey called it). Glenne finally decided he was just taking them obviously someone left them...there were 3, one was broken. We got 2 boogie boards and 2 noodles. Glenne introduced "surfing" to Hailey while we were there with the new boards. She was a little unsure but quickly LOVED it. Here are various pics.


this pic is of her coming back from "surfing"..this was like the 3rd day her and Glenne surfed. I love the look of accomplishment on her face. I will be cursing myself years from now when I have a surfer girl...but I love that she loves the beach and the ocean.
surfing.......small waves

more surfing.............................

and more...............................

does she not look like a pro practicing?? Glenne was not coaching her...I was far away taking this pic and he did not know about the camera.

Trying to surf in the pond area left by the high tide...all by herself

Daddy took her out past the first sandbar to surf..she had her arm swimmies on.
