Same Great Thing, Different Day!

Each morning I’m a bit worried as to the mood of the kids when they wake up. And each day they are just as happy as the day before. From sun up to sun down, they are both all smiles, and you know they must be tired with all the swimming and walking and playing all day long! First thing this morning was no different, they were so happy to be awake, and get ready for their day. Elliott is always asking ‘so what are we doing today.’ Just like at home, she needs to know what’s on our agenda (as we call it). Today the kids went out first thing with Daddy to the pool, I stayed in with Dane, it was too hot out to bring him out! Eventually we came down, but not for long, it was too hot! Seth took the kids out to the beach and they made a bunch of sand castles.

Myles enjoyed setting up all his army men and dinosaurs for a battle. Myles enjoys playing with Seth, he is all smiles. Today they spent a lot of time at the beach, and we set up an umbrella which helped provide some shade for Myles and Elliott. We also spent a lot of time in the pool. Grandma brought a blow up boat, and the kids loved to play in it, Myles liked to pretend he was in a whirlpool of waves. This afternoon Grandma had ‘Dane Duty’ and we got to go out as a family. Elliott just loves it when we are all together!

Grandpa enjoys playing with the kid int the pool, too. Myles likes it when he puts him on his shoudlers and jumps up and down - this has been a fave for the past several vacations! Grandma enjoys having Elliott jump in and swim across the pool, which today she made it across the width of the pool swimming without a bubble. She just kicks and kicks and kicks. And she even learned that swimming with her face in makes her go further faster!

My husband just loves to come to the beach and pull out his beach fashion, photo above sporting the sunglasses and shirt! He is so funny and well into trends! I so hope the kiddos pick up on his fashion sense. Right now, I'm just into finding something that fits! We all enjoyed a beach walk down to happy hour, Elliott had to sit in the stroller because she’s so tired and none of us wanted to carry her. So I carried Dane on the front pack and Elliott took a ride in the stroller. We went to taco night at Cabasca’s, a favorite for all of us.

After a yummy dinner and great drink specials (which I enjoyed in spirit) we picked up some ice cream at Dairy Queen on the beach! And Elliott enjoyed ice cream on the stroller ride home. Myles decided it was too cold, so we got to eat the rest! It was such a nice walk down the beach with the sun setting to an end to a great day!
