Seaside Day 6!

We went for a pool day on day 6...at least in the morning:

Hudson and Sam were Jedi's. Or superheroes. Hard to say:

Fin took a nap at the pool on me:

Fletchers are nothing if not creatures of habit...back at our favorite lunch spot. Just looking at this picture is making me hungry:

After lunch, the skies opened up. We waited for the worst to pass and then we headed down to the beach:

Lizabeth and I huddled up with Fin under the umbrella while it continued to rain. The kids and Trent played in the rain and ocean. Slowly, the rest of our friends trickled down one by one to the beach. The rain stopped, the sun came out and the nearly empty beach was ours. It was a beautiful late afternoon on the beach and one of my favorite memories from the trip.

Seaside Day 5!

After burning several pods in the ocean water, we got smart and wrapped it. It worked out well and stayed on. Bonus: Hud loved the wrap. Strongest kid I know right here:

More one on one time with this pretty girl:

Fin LOVED the beach pea pod:

And the go pod...she was all about the pod:

The kids found a jellyfish (I had no idea what foreshadowing this was!):

The Tanners knew a couple that happened to be staying a couple of floors below us. They rented a kayak and were kind enough to let all of our kids try it out:

She loves to be buried!

Fin got in the water and loved it:

After a rest that afternoon (and a nap for Fin), we got ready for some evening beach time and crab hunting:

After dinner on the deck, we headed down to the beach:

There is something so peaceful about the beach at sunset:

When the sun set, it was time for some crab hunting:

We saw fireworks in the distance almost every night:

So proud of all of the crabs he caught!

Seaside Day 4

The kids were up and ready for the day. Hudson couldn't even stop for a picture...this girl always can!

I called Trent our pack mule for the week!

This little bit slept in every morning, so I got to spend some one on one time with her each morning. I treasured every minute of it!

I love this little mess:

The girls loved boogie boarding:

The boys love the boat:

We took a lunch break at one of our favorites:

After lunch we went to rest and clean up.  Then it was time for dinner at Great Southern, which we LOVE. 

Sweet girls:

My three little loves:

The children's theater puts on a little performance every Monday night. This week was Robin Hood. It was a little (lot) on the cheesy side, but the kids had a GREAT time:

Fin really had fun too, she just isn't showing it:

They look like little frat boys to me:

Little beauty:

We wore her right out!

 Another beautiful sunset:
