Beach!!

We just got home from a wonderful beach trip. We hadn't been since October, so we were all very excited to get to the cottage. We love being there as a family, and the children love the beach! The last time we were there Ann Evelyn was just 8 weeks old, so I was interested to see how she'd react to the sand and water. She loved it! And the boys were in heaven!

I've posted a lot of pics...

Sitting in the sand on our first day on the beach

The boys have so much fun running back and forth on the beach. Forrest wants to do whatever Andrew is doing... they were big buddies on the trip (they are all the time actually!).

Sissy's trying on big brother's sunglasses. She just about got them on!

Sissy got a new pink swing... so cute!

Andrew and Wilson went fishing a couple of days... they caught us a lunch of fish and crabs that were so good! Andrew had so much fun that he wanted a fishing pole of his own. We went to Walmart, he picked one out, and fished with it the rest of the week!

Forrest and Sissy had fun playing together in the sand while Dada and Andrew fished.

And this fellow hung around just in case the fisherman caught anything!

"I'm two."

This is his swimming gear... he thought it was fun to wear it all the time - funny boy!

Crawling thru the tunnel,

and pulling up!

We've been working on a bow for a while now... She's got enough hair, I think, but it just slips out. Still... pretty adorable, I think!

one of my favorites of our "dress-up" pictures...

These were taken at 7 am, and we still have squinty eyes! I think we'll try 7 pm next time!

And a ferry ride on the way home was a fun ending to a great trip. Can't wait to go back!
