creations in the sand

I love checking out sandcastle contests at this time of year!  One of the great things about living on the coast in Connecticut is that it is easy to find one!

Today for Friday field trip, I am sharing a few of my favorite sand creations from a recent contest.  It was not easy to edit my photos to post just a few sand sculptures, but it was easy to pick my favorite!

There were plenty of wonderful creations, but the couch design was my personal fave!  Isn’t it great?

The best part of this Christmas in July themed creation was probably the music!  The creators played the Hawaiian Christmas Song (Mele Kulilkimaka) during the judging!  I had the Christmas classic by Bing Crosby stuck in my head for at least a week after the contest!

Maybe I have inspired you to play in the sand a little bit this weekend?  I hope so!  Have a great one!
