Bye, Bye Beach Life . . 'til next year!

AHHHH Vacation . . .the only bad part about it is returning to reality! We had a great time and are now home sweet home! The boys are already longing for beach days and asking when we are going back! Here are a few last moments of our beach life. . .

souvenir shops! We love 'em!

As Kyler says, "this was the catch of the day!" YES, after several attempts with raw chicken, string and a can (yuk!) look what we found on our last day!! A BLUE CRAB! He was lucky - too late for us to boil him up!

LIfe's a BEACH (Part III)

I hate to say it, but our beach days are numbered:( we have had a blast!! Just a little sum up of who was with us . . .Pop, CiCi and Mim joined us Sun-Wed and spent their days being beach bums with us! Auntie M and James-Alan got to spend the entire week with us! AND --lots of friends stayed in their condos at the same location - so the kids were never in need of playmates!

here's a pic of all the kids: backrow: Morgan Pitts, Brantley Jerrell, Bailey McIver, Madison Pitts. Front row: Cali Jerrell, Alana Allen, Evan, Thater Allen, Grayson Allen, Kyler and Jayden. WHAT A CREW!

Jayden playing with his Itouch under the palm trees . . . how relaxing!

A night out!

A night in . . Mojitos by Miranda!

The last 2 days the waves have been much bigger -- perfect for a little boating!

Jayden and Kyler have no fear in the waves! (Evan has no fear as long as Daddy is with him!)

Life's a BEACH! (Part I)

Life's a beach. . .a pool . . beach. . . pool - that sums up our migration pattern!

The weather has been great, the water has been great and the beach has been great!

It rained on Tuesday, but worked out fine, because that gave us the chance to go to the Aviation musem -- it was really cool - I can't believe we havn't been there before!


The whole fam!
