Last Few of the Beach

Well...we are home.  Unfortunately.  I could totally live at the beach.  We did things a little differently this time.  This is the first time in a long time, its only been our family on vacation.  We also stayed in a house instead of a condo.  I thought we would really miss not having a pool, but I didn't at all.  I think the boys missed the lack of young girls to chase around though...oh well!!

Here is the view from our porch:



 Gracie and I totally bonded over our love of the beach. She wanted to stay out all day long. I know her eyes are closed in this shot, but I love it. She drug that chair all the way down to sit right next to me. I love the sand on her face :)

She spent hours, rolling in the surf, jumping over waves, collecting shells, or playing in the sand. She wouldn't even go in to eat lunch. I was happy to stay out with her :)

Braden brought a friend with him. (Jared snapped the family pics for me :)

I love this shot of Braden. He never wants to take pics and when I do get one, he is very rarely smiling with his mouth open. This shot is so natural and totally Braden. I am thrilled to have it!

I love this one of Bryce too. Catching them when they're relaxed is fun :)

So that's the end of our beach vacation.  The summer is flying by.  There are only a few more baseball games and honestly, it's almost time to start thinking about school uniforms!!  It amazes me how fast time goes by.
