Beach Pics At Last

IMG_6860 copy

Maybe I should have mentioned when I promised to post the beach pics “soon” that I probably took 1,000+ pictures at the beach. And, it’s pretty hard to go through 1,000 fun, cute beach pictures…much less cut it down to a manageable number for the blog!

And, thankfully, we’ve had a fun week that’s kept me busy too: Avery at basketball camp, Gage at flag football camp, everyone swimming…and getting ready for tonight’s fundraiser at Sammy’s BBQ. Who knows why I’m choosing to post on the blog while I should be getting ready…but, this way, when people ask tonight about the beach pics, I can say that I finally posted them!

Thanks for checking in…and enjoy the pics!

A rare picture of all four…together and clean!

    Thank you for making it possible for all of us to get together to support your family and Children’s hospital. LOVED also the plaque for Lauren…I talked with her about it later in the evening and she was blown away by it. Loved to also see these beach pictures, thanks for posting! I love how much fun they have together…a beautiful sight to see indeed! Love! Veronica

    Looks like a wonderfully fun time.
    Gotta say—the watermelon pic—my favorite!

    We were at Water Color the week before you guys were there. It was our year to have difficulties. Both kids ran fever the first 2 days. The weekend before we left, I had a major gall bladder attack and ER visit. Needless to say, I could not eat in FL. I ended up having surgery June 17th to remove the gall bladder and have an open hysterectomy! Would you like more to pray for? :-) I am recovering right now.

    The pictures were sweet! That ocean area is such a healing place and peaceful place. Praying for Gage’s health
