Vacation Re-Cap: The Beach

Chad and I went into the beach trip this year saying, "This could totally go either way." Jake is so crazy and fun and fearless in some ways, but every once in a while, he'll get totally freaked out.

By a hedge trimmer.
Or an electric meat slicer.
Or a hair dryer.

But luckily, he LOVED the "shund" (sand), "sheals" (shells), and "bich" (beach).

And Brooklyn, not to be outdone by her brother, tried new things as well. She loved using her kickboard and then later in the week, her new boogie board from Aunt Patty and Uncle Bill.

Jake loved spending time with "Ah-Bill" (Uncle Bill). (Early in the week they had similar farmer's tans. ha ha!)

And Brooklyn LOVED special time with Aunt Patty.

We even had an easy time carting all our stuff to the beach thanks to the stroller and wagon.

And that $3 tub I raved about last week. :-)
