Yay for Internet! And Beach post part 2

Internet is officially up and running at the casa! 

Anyway- to finish up the beach post.

The first half of the week was a bit of the dreary, rainy side but we still managed to squeeze out a bit of beach time each day.  Thankfully the weather only got better and we finished the week with sun!

Here are some pics of our cloudy days on the beach.
 

Hunter all ready to boogie board

He spent so much time on this thing... thanks Zach.  He even shared with me and laughed at me when I did it.

Shepherd tried to do it...

Seriously, my loves!
 We also walked out on the pier.  It was so cloudy and we saw 3 baby sharks caught.

My crew

Uncle Tom Tom and Charlee

This picture of Charlee cracks me up... it is cousin it... haha

And there she is...  her hair is so pretty but it was blowing all over the place on the pier.  If I had an extra hair band, I would have put it up

 
And the pictures from the sunny beach days.

love this picture of Ashton and Charlee

playing in the sand

Nothing like a nap on the beach.. it seemed to put him to sleep every time he came down
And then...he woke up.  So little hair. 

Trying to avoid my camera

But, I win and got a beautiful Sheppy shot

Ashton busy at work

Chad and Hunter

 

Sweet pic of Chad and Hunter walking down the beach... if only I could get rid of all the other people around them

Sweet Sami

Bennett unsure of the massive water

Open or shut?  Chad says his eyes are open, I say shut... you decide

Getting ready for our boat ride
 Thursday, the whole group minus Sandee, Patsy, and Sami went to on a boat ride into the ocean to see dolphins.  It was definitely worth the money and we all had a great time.  We rode on a huge speed boat and got wet so the kids were all about it.

On the calm part of the ride

This is what Bennett thought about it all

and he woke up just in time for the dolphins

 Firework time.

From Wednesday to Friday, the weather was great.  Our family went to play putt putt Wednesday night and we had such a good time.  They loved it.  We kept score but decided not to tally it up to see who won.  Ashton had so much fun he didn't even ask who won so we just let it go at that.  We then went to get ice cream at CFA. Bennett loved him some of ice cream!



The house we stayed at was only 3 houses from the pier where the fireworks were shot off so we had front row seats... everyone but Bennett stayed up for the show which ended early because of a misfire. 
On our way home
Hub and Patsy... thank you thank you thank you for such a fun week.  We all needed the break and had such a great time.  From the food to the fellowship, it was a great trip!
