Just hanging at the beach
Isaac did not fall off Grandma's lap if anyone was concerned...
Playing at the four-wheel drive beach
This was a usual picture for the entire week.
This was not so usual:)
Ah yes, Derek after face planting into the sand
And then doing his best Michael Phelps imitation at the pool...So our week was amazing! We had beautiful weather for the entire week except for a slight tornado watch on Friday night but I personally thought it was pretty beautiful too. The water was extremely warm for 2 days complete with a sand bar to body surf and boogie board to our hearts content. We had a smaller group this year but it was still awesome. My kids had a blast running around with their cousins and aunts and uncles and grandparents and great-grandparents. We ate like kings, played all day, and loved every minute of it. Here's a few highlights:
- My kids got to go on go-carts with Jason and my dad.
- We hit the beach every day.
- Then always followed up with the pool and a nap.
- Joni took home the cribbage skunk this year thanks to her dear hubby.
- Played too many games of the card game "golf"
- Made our own jewelry with Aunt Laurie's new hobby equipment
- A few of us watched the sunrise while Jared took pics of the event
Overall we had a great time! It's almost the saddest time of year now becase I realize that this will not happen again for another full year. Really not a reason to be sad in the big scheme of life but sad none the less.
