We spent two hours playing, picnic-ing, and swimming...and I don't think any of the kids were ready to go! We had some awesome company come along with us, and it was the icing on the cake!

a beach party.
Who knew that there were so many fun and free things to do right in our back yard! We recently discovered "the beach" (Oquirrh Lake) in Daybreak...which is right around the corner from our house. The sand there is lovely, and makes great sand castles. I thought it was near perfection until someone clued me in Herriman has a "beach" (Black Ridge Reservoir) too...and so we ventured there last week.
The sand isn't nearly as amazing, but you can swim in the water...and Daybreak you can not! Oh, and the view of the mountains is fab-u-lous!

We are itchin' to go back again really soon...if you are headed there we would love to meet you! :)

Why am I just hearing about this now? My kids bug me all summer to go to the beach. I'm there! Tell me how to get there!
I've been meaning to get out there, but I always forget about it!
We'll totally join you sometime :)
My boys have been BEGGING to go to a beach, please do tell, how do you get to the Herriman beach? And are we cool enough for you guys to meet us there??
Looks like an awesome day!!
It was SUPER FUN! I love that picture of Devin playing in the sand, so dang cute!!
let's plan a day ladies...before school starts up again, and Van won't be able to attend. :)
I will post the details on my blog, but I am thinking a Friday.
How cool! If only I were closer to Herriman. And had my daughter all the time. :( I'd still love to try to come though!
Love that beach too! Why can't you swim at Daybreak? I did a couple years ago. They must have changed the rules?
Looks fun! Why can't you swim in the water at Daybreak Beach? Off limits, or just too shallow?
Went there today! Thank you for the info.
