We spent last weekend at the beach with my sister and her family, and my dad and his girlfriend. It was great! The beach house we were in had a deck that went all the way around the house, so needless to say the kids were loving running around the house. A lot. I love this picture of Zach...he's looking like such a big boy!
Bringing up the rear!
Strike a pose.
Cute girl!
Emily and Jasmine discovering the joy of Guitar Hero. They did really well too!
Alice and her tongs.
Playing on the beach. Too bad it was soooo windy! Abby didn't last long, which was fine by me because I was freezing with that wind blowing. 
Andy and his sand-castle project. Kept the older kids busy for quite awhile.
Zach was in charge of gathering shells to decorate the castle with. 
Worker bees...
Me and Abby in the wind...
Ta-da! Pretty good, wouldn't you say? 
Proud of their work. :)
Andy made Skim boards for himself and the kids. (I hadn't heard of them either, don't worry) Something he and his family always used to do at the coast. He looks a little grounded here though. 
That's going to be a good one!
Little skimmer.
The kids found these hats in one of the closets in the house so we ended up having a hat night. Here's my sister and my dad. 
Arriving at the sand dunes.
Uncle Brad helping Zach out of the pit.
Andy being all fancy with his somersault in. ;)
Emily and Brad...
More skim board fun on our one sunny day.
Lesson time...
Not bad, Zach!
I love this shot. 
Concentration!
Miss Em....being her relaxed self. 
My feet. 
My boys!
And about 2 minutes after we pulled out of the McDonalds drive-thru on the way home....too tired to eat after such a fun-filled, busy weekend!
