Remember this lovely photo from last week?
Only one of her favorite things ever.
I came down to the beach and she said:
Mama! Quick come here!
You've got to see this!
Me: ????
Lo: DON'T STEP ON ANY SHELLS OR ANY HOLES...they are all hermit crabs!
Yes, there were at least a bajillion of them. All cute and special...all lacking free will.
Right?
Right.
Did you know that if you drop a piece of lettuce on the ground, you can start a hermit crab civil war?
Then I forced her to stop messing with them so I could get some good silhouette photos.
I'm a mean one~~~~Mr. Grinch.
Lolo starts her 2nd year of college today; surprisingly she is not majoring in Marine Biology OR posing.

LOL- What a cute post- The video won't play for me-but I think it is the blocks in my computer rather than your link. Love that shadow photo- xo Diana
ReplyDelete2nd year of college already? I'm trying to get over the fact that our oldest started high school today...
ReplyDeleteI disappear for a week and you change your blog! I like it! Hermit crabs...not so much, photo of the girls - GREAT. I can't believe the second year of college is already here. Geez
ReplyDeleteOh... NEAT silhouette shot!
ReplyDeleteToday must be back-to-school day everywhere! My middle niece is starting her 2nd year of high school, the oldest niece starts her first day of college, and Stud starts his 2nd year of college like Lo. Big day today!!
ReplyDeleteYour crabs are cute. (and don't pretend you haven't heard THAT a million times!)
The Costa Rican Hermit Crabs certainly have nice pickings for fancy shell houses! Cool.
ReplyDeleteCrabbing -that's what the boys say I do in the morning - or is that crabby?
ReplyDeleteI love playing with ocean things and am a wee bit jealous that I wasn't there with you - what a great way to spend time on the beach! and now I'll know to take lettuce with me.
Love the silhouettes! Pita claims she is going to major in marine biology :)
ReplyDeleteGreat silhouette shots! I love hermit crabs!

What are hermit crabs doing on the beach? I thought they lived in souvenir shops on the board walk? How strange.
ReplyDeletem.
Did you tell them there was enough for the whole class?
ReplyDeleteLove the silhouette shot!
Things at the beach --like the crabs--are so much fun to watch. Being at the beach is almost as great as hiking deep in the woods.. So much to see and do!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat silhouette photos.. Four beautiful girls!!!
(I would not want to see a silhouette photo of ME....ha ha)
Hugs,
Betsy
