Our trip to the beach

Some friends of ours were kind enough to let us use their beach condo for the weekend and it was an absolute dream! I cannot tell you how much I just needed some time away from home and a mini-vacation. We let Jack bring his friend Judson, so it was more "fun" than "relaxing" with the three boys to look after, but we had a really great time. This was Owen's first time going to the beach and while he wasn't quite sure about the ocean and the (HUGE) waves, he LOVED the dry sand - he would pick it up and let it fall through his hands with this look of wonder and amazement! He also enjoyed squishing in the wet sand and playing in the tidal pool with his big brother. Jack and Judson boogie boarded and body surfed their little hearts out and I admit, I got in on the action too, it was so much fun, I felt like I was 8 years old again! :) I can't wait to go back - I could live at the beach! Here are a WHOLE BUNCH of pictures from our trip!

Who knew 8 year old boys could eat SO much??
They found a jellyfish...

Yeah, we're not sure what's up with the peace sign either

They had so much fun with this boat!

Owen totally thought he was one of the big boys

Hmmm, not quite sure.....

This is a little better!

Ahhh, sand. At least he didn't try to eat it.

Beach bums

They love each other so much!!

Seriously? Does it get any better than this? I am so blessed! :)
