Beachy day

Toby and I are playing hooky for the rest of the week and heading to Fire Island with these guys. We're excited to nap on the beach and maybe grill some burgers. I have more posts coming up, if you're in a blog reading mood. :) xoxo P.S. Have you ever been to Fire Island?

Oh, so fun! I am sure things are just adorable with Toby at the beach. Enjoy! xoxo

I've never been but it looks like the perfect place for a bit of sunshine and relaxation-- reminds me a bit of the Outer Banks (which also happens to be my favorite place in the world). Have a blast! Does Toby love the ocean yet? :)

Love the baby tushie! When are they too old to have a "baby tushie," by the way?!

Diana Mieczan said...

Yes, Point O'Woods. I loved Fire Island and being roused by the kids at 5:30 am to dig gigantic sand castle moats with the garden shovels for the kids 20 yrs ago. Enjoy.

jen fuller said...

Beach pictures are my favorite! Fire Island is gorgeous, too, so have fun!

I have so many happy memories of Fire Island! Last trip there was 4 summers ago. I miss it.I wear my navy Blue Fire island baseball hat proudly:)) love all the wagons at the dock.

Kirsteen said...

Enjoy! Sounds lovely x

Yes & it's delightful! I used to own a home with an ex on Cherry Grove & we spent as often as possible there. Even Thanksgiving once! I love that there were no cars where we were. You should check out Sunken Forest. I used to jog through there. There is plenty of shade also. Enjoy. Now I wish I was there. I did make it back there last year though:)

Dancing Branflake said...

Going to the beach myself! I cannot wait!

I've never been to Fire Island and I'm jealous you get to play hooky...what I wouldn't give for a grill out this afternoon!

Jesse said...

sounds like the perfect weekend, i've been dying to get to the beach all year.

Unfurled said...

I've been to fire island, where I saw a naked man whipping the air with a long black whip. Stay on the friendly side of the island ;)

Jessica Ochs said...

Love Fire Island! We stayed in Fair harbor. So family friendly! Have a great time!

Fleur De Moi said...

Totally jealous! I want to skip work and go to the beach. Hope y'all have fun!

hms said...

I have never been to Fire Island but I lived for a few years in Bay Shore, where the ferries leave. I remember dreading Friday nights in the summer and trying to get home on the LIRR with all the folks heading for the ferry!

Alas, "Fire Island" for me means Standing Room Only, Bags of Groceries on a Crowded Train and Tiny Pups in Handbags :)I have heard it's a great place though!

EleseinaFleece said...

I essentially grew up on Fire Island! I spent nearly all summer every summer going to the beach! I'm so happy you and Toby are going to be spending time there! The best hot pink sunsets ever!!

heather said...

I love Fire Island! Even the boat ride out there! It feels so far from the city and so old fashioned :) It's just so lovely. I still have some adorable hand painted shells that I bought from some little girls a few years ago. Great memories! Ah, how I miss living in nyc!! Have so much fun! It really is a true escape!

Stacy said...

Have fun enjoying the last days of summer! How cute are those naked beach buns?!

Ally Pelle said...

Yes! I grew up on Long Island just across the bay. September beach days are my favorite and it's so beautiful this time of year. Have a great time.

Never been to, nor heard of Fire Island....but you had me at Beach. : ) Hope yall have a blast!!

Anna Claire said...

We're headed to the beach, too! Never heard of Fire Island, but it sounds fun :) We'll be at one of my favorite places in the world, Rosemary Beach, Fla.
This is our first time going to the beach with our son, 15 months - I'd love to hear your advice on beachgoing with kids!

ann said...

Love Fire Island! It is so charming, and I love that it is only 1/4 or 1/2 mile wide--makes you feel like you can go anywhere in no time. You and Toby will have the best time!

amy said...

my sister goes to fire island all the time! we hope when we visit from ca that we can go there too....for now we have a beach in san luis obispo just a few minutes away! btw happy anniversary...ours is the day after yours, but we're one year ahead! your toby and my stella would make great little pals!

Kate said...

I spent all my summers growing up on Fire Island and my parents live there now from May until October. Ocean Beach is where they live. Enjoy it-if you get a chance check out the Sunken Forest. It's truly a magical place to explore!

dani kreeft said...

have a lovely time away! it's september 1st, so enjoy all the beach time you can muster! xo.

Sarah and lily said...

I love fire island! I live in San Francisco, but my grandmother has a house there. It is the best place ever to ride bikes (especially in the boardwalk parts where no cars are allowed) and to pick and eat blueberries! Have fun!

katie said...

Fire Island is wonderful! I went 5 years ago to Kismet. Beautiful beach, & they had artist stands set up down by the dock. Have fun!

Liz said...

playing hookey is such a great expression! In Australia we said 'wagging' which has none of the romance! Have a super time.

Andrew Knight said...

These beach pictures are terrific. Jumping is exactly what our boys love to do on the beach, as well.

Sheila@Chinaberry said...

Love the pic of the naked little babe! Hope you had a great time.

Joanna Goddard said...

thanks for these lovely comments! we had the BEST time! we stayed in dunewood, which is near fair harbor -- soooooo lovely without cars and just with bikes and red wagons! we adored it. a little ice cream shop, a pizza place, utterly charming :) can't wait to go back!

Sobrina Tung said...

I've never been to Fire Island, but it totally reminds me of the story that David Sedaris wrote about it (I think it was Fire Island). Have you read it? It's so hilarious! Hope you had fun at the beach!
