the girls and i have been at the beach this past week with my family. one of my brothers and my other brother's wife both turned 40 over the past few months, so we decided this was a great way to get together and celebrate. the weather was not great most of the beginning part of the week, but the past two days have been perfect. so we've spent the day at the beach and some time at the pool too.
emma can't get enough of swimming and splashing in the waves and the pool. isabella is becoming a little fish too. she pulls away from me in the pool and the ocean to show me her float and swim that she's been learning this summer. and at the beach, she has been covered in sand. isabella doesn't sit still for long on the beach. she's in the water, out of the water, walking down the beach, talking to the seagulls, playing in the holes the big kids dug, digging in the sand, rolling in the sand, and even sticking her face in the sand a few times!
why is it that vacations . . . especially beach vacations . . . are never long enough! now i know why my dad used to plan our beach vacations for 10-14 days. one week just goes too fast! but, it sure has been nice to get away from the regular routine for a few days.
i'll have plenty of pictures to share early next week, so stay tuned for those!
