Sprinkle Me



Cooper enjoyed playing in the sprinklers while we were at the beach.

Family Pictures at the Beach

We tried again this year to take family pictures at the beach. Here are a few that we took last year. The kids have changed so much over the course of a year. The kids were not all that excited about getting their pictures made. I even tried bribing them with candy. I guess they were too distracted by the beach construction and men flying right off shore.

We did manage to get a few good ones though.




Beautiful Time

We spent the last week enjoying the beautiful Destin beaches. The water was amazingly clear and the sand was so soft and white. The kids had a wonderful time. Cooper was fearless in the pool and pretty adventurous at the beach. Marlee was a little more cautious this year compared to her time last year.

We spent our mornings at the beach digging and playing saving the afternoons for the pool. We enjoyed some very yummy dinners and quality time with our family. We look forward to future trips with Marlee and Cooper where they can really take full advantage of a vacation.

Of course the headline news each morning talked about the oil spill in the gulf. Luckily, we had zero exposure to any of it, but it does make me extremely sad to think of all that yucky stuff washing ashore and hurting the wildlife. I hope they get it all under control to minimize the damage.

In the meantime, enjoy some of the fun we had this past week.

Very calm water the first couple of days and very big waves the last few days.

She was struttin' her stuff!

Marlee's island for her castle.

They are on top of a "mountain" according to Marlee.

She was practicing wearing her goggles in the water. She dipped her face in only for a few seconds, but she was so proud of herself.

Just a digging on the beach early one morning.

We saw dolphins right off the shore. Cooper couldn't miss out on the action.

They were so excited to try out all the new sand toys. Cooper didn't have any sandy diapers this year. LOL

Bye, Bye Paci!

This picture was taken just before Marlee stole Cooper's paci and buried it in the sand, never to be found.

Looking at Sissy.
Waiting on the waves!
