Beach Vacation 2010

We have had a wonderful time at Laguna Beach this week. The trip down went well, and really our 4 days here have gone very well. Some whining and complaining, especially as they get more tired and miss home and routine. All in all a good trip tho. We will start back tomorrow, spend the night in Alabama and get home Sunday evening. The boys have loved playing in the waves and searching for wildlife. The waves have been pretty big, which is fun, but very tiring. Dan has to go out with them and he is tired too. We haven't collected many shells. The waves are just too big. I'm not too sad tho - lots less "valuables" for me to bring home. We did go to a state park today and found several small sand dollars. They have also loved no school! I really had hoped to get some things ready to bring in order to make the most of our time, but it just didn't happen. Maybe next year....

I agree, the sunset picture is really good! And I have a picture just like the bucket picture with Dima and Pasha on the beach 2 weeks ago! Scary how the boys are soooo similar, isn't it?! Praying for safe travels for you!

Your beach pics are way better than mine. :) The beach you went to is stunning. And the sunset picture is gorgeous.

I love that we can all watch our ninos grow and learn together. I am so grateful for technology--if only for that one reason!

Your boys are growing as fast as mine. It's amazing when we post the then and now pics, isn't it?

Good luck this school year! :)
