Until next time!

I guess maybe because of where I grew up, ( Biloxi, MS) the beach will always be my favorite place, the greatest getaway, my place of relaxaition, and a place of fun for the family. No matter what beach I am on, it always feels like home. Luckily my family seems to enjoy it as much as I do, so it makes for a great family vacation!

For Adam and Cole, the beach is a place of great adventure and fun. It is where Adam can go fishing, and Cole can run for miles and throw things in there air with the only consequence being that he is eventually covered in sand and results in a shower, that he drags out to last a good 30 minutes while he splashes and plays even more. It is where Adam and Cole together, can wonder out and find all kinds of new thing to learn and talk about.

Such as starfish:

 Cole had a great time collecting starfish. He liked the way they wiggled in his hands, and loved lining them up for a group picture. At one point in time we had collected 11starfish!

They also had fun collecting crabs that they found. Adam found a huge area, when the tide was down, where there was literally hundreds of crabs crawling everywhere! Cole kept wanting to poke them despite our warnings that they would pinch him! Logan went with Adam to collect them, while Cole was down for a nap, and when he woke up they all went out on the back deck to show Cole what they had found.

We managed to find all kinds of new things to show the boys. There was even a piece of coral that washed up on shore while we were there.

We even, spent one day out sight seeing and visited the light house.

So as you can probably tell the boys had a great time! Cole loved the time he spent with Daddy!

And as for me, well I enjoyed all the adventures, but taking off my shoes and relaxing was what it was all about.

And since Brody wasn't old enough to take part in the adventures he enjoyed relaxing with me when he wasn't trying to learn to crawl (I'll blog about that soon).

and occassionally even Cole would enjoy in a little relaxation as well...

Although I would have ordinarily been annoyed with Brody waking my up at 5 in the morning, the view from the balcony made it all worth it.



My favorite part of each day was the beautiful sunrises that Brody made sure that I was up in time to enjoy!

So until next time....I will be dreaming of you beach and your beautiful sunrises!
