botany bay

One day we ventured off our little stretch of beach to a local area known for it’s beautiful shells.


It was a bit of a hike.


We made sure to arrive at low tide, to see all the most recent waves had washed ashore.


Pails ready for our, as yet, undiscovered treasures.


Turned out that there were no sand dollars, shark teeth or starfish waiting to be found that day.


Instead we beheld the scenery


and soaked in the awesomeness of nature and it’s Creator…


and reveled in the joy of family.
