And we're off.....
What can I say? We had a WONDERFUL vacation!! We went to Seaside / Seacrest Beach in Florida. Ryan and Bryan go every year and were looking forward to showing off their stomping ground. I can see why they love to go there and must admit I am sold. We loved it! We had a house right on the beach and it was wonderful to wake up each morning and walk right out onto the deck in front of the ocean. The week was complete with daily morning walks on the beach, plenty of fun in the sun building sand castles, playing with the kids in the water, lots of diving time for Mike, John, and Andi, Bryan teaching me to paddle board (lots of fun), evening bike rides to the playground and sometimes to my new favorite sweet shop called the Sugar Shak, a couple's night out provided by G-Mama and John and Andi, game playing, and most especially time together with family. I so enjoyed watching all the cousins interact. They are all so funny and have unique personalities!
We loved having G-Mama there with us and she spoiled us with a yummy Low Country Boil Party! It was a wonderful week and I am already looking forward to our next family beach trip!!!
Now, it is back to reality. John and Andi start school on 8/10 but are already at band camp everyday from 8-4. Landon and Addi start on 9/1, so they have a little longer vacation. I know everyone's lives will get much busier as Fall begins and school starts back.
Fall football and John's senior year here we come!!!!
Also, wanted to brag about John, he got a 4 on his AP English exam which means he already has college credit for English!! Gooooo John!
Enjoy some pics from the beach!!
