This Summer Rocked!

I can't believe it's time to go back to school! The kids go back to school on Monday. Summer went by way to fast. We had so much fun during the month of June. No schedule and all FUN! We loved staying up super late and sleeping in to recover. Nobody wanted to wake up for swim team so we snoozed away our mornings. It was great. Kiersten wanted to go to swim team so thanks to the Lewis' and Glenn's she was able to get some swimming in. We left for the beach the end of June and hung out there for a few weeks. It was a blast! Just a few highlights:)







All of the kids got so sun burned the first day at the beach. It was terrible. Jack had a huge blister on his cheek. Hallie had blisters on her forehead. Nolan had blisters on his ears. Kiersten had blisters on her nose and I had blisters all over my back. It sucked. So much for the continuous spray sunscreen. After that I was a little crazy with the zinc oxide.




We had so much fun boogie boarding! It amazes me that the kids can boogie board for hours. They come out of the water for a quick snack and then they head right back in. They get surfers rash, stung by bees, stung by jelly fish and they still love the waves. Kiersten loved it the most!







Our cousin Jayme did all the girls hair in spiderwebs. They all looked so cute! AND we got really sun burned on our heads.



Camping on the beach is the best BUT it is a lot of work with all our little ones. Russ was awesome! He carried all our stuff down and brought it back up for us. Everyday the goal was to get the kids clean after a long day beaching and try to get some food in their bellies before they crashed. I loved this picture of Jack, he was out!


I Love My Baby Jack!



We had so many friends and family with us at the beach. It was a great time. Can't wait to see everybody again next summer. The countdowns on! We love all our beach people!




Thank to our friends the Lewis' we spent a day at Legoland. It was all FREE!








We took the kids to Sea Port Village before we took Russ to the Airport.






We rode bikes around Coronado Island with the Mahler's. Oh! and we danced with ELVIS!
