Beach Week!

* This post has TONS of pictures, you've been warned!

* Blogger is on my LAST nerve...I have been trying to do this post for days and FINALLY after googling what the issue was, I've discovered I now need Chrome to use Blogger...seriously!?!  Atleast it's fixed!

We had a GREAT week at the beach!!  We were there from the Monday before the 4th of July until the Sunday after.  The weather started out a little iffy, but got better and better each day and we just had so much fun!

   

Two crazy kiddos pumped for the beach!!

Sweet man building castles with Momma...the first couple days were a little overcast, which was actually nice because it wasn't hot!

On July 3rd Missy Magoo jumped off the diving board...this was the first of about 100!  She did great :)

Heath, Tobin, Mari, and Olivia came down for the day on Wednesday!  We had SOO much fun with them!  We swam, came up for lunch during a lovely rain shower, and then it was a beautiful afternoon on the beach!

Reags and Olivia were pretty stressed and had no fun together ;)

 

A little 4th of July morning walk on the beach

 

The pool had a limbo contest for the kids on the 4th...Reagan had the perfect limbo stance until she got close to the "noodle" and that's when she went head first...silly girl!

   

Happy 4th of July!!

We went down to the rides early so that we could beat some of the crowd that would be arriving for the fireworks.  It worked out great and we went back to have an All-American dinner of tacos :)

The tea cups were discovered this night!

My Landy and I on the helicopters

   

We got home from dinner and these lovely Delaware State Police motorcycles were parked, of course, in OUR spot!  Joe and Jill Biden go to Rehoboth and stay at a friend's house next to the condo.  Turns out these were part of their motorcade for the night, that just decided to take up our spot!  

(One morning Reagan and I went for a "run" and we ran by a woman that looked familiar...I said "good morning" and smiled and then a few feet behind her were 2 big guys with clear coils coming out of their ear, then a big black SUV was behind them...that's when it clicked we just ran by Jill Biden...and she did not say hello or smile to me or my precious little girl...whatever!  Their secret service was on the floor above us in the condo along with the military that set up all of their 500 computers for surveillance...we didn't want to think too much about how much all this operation cost!  Still pretty cool to have the vice president staying next door!

   

Daddy and his favorite boys!

This kid can get serious air...hilarious!  He was in this position a lot...in fact, he is just a jumping machine...everywhere!

Oh B...he saw another doggy on the beach...isn't he scary!?

  

Playing on the playground while we waited for Mum-Mum and Pop-Pop to come visit for the day!

   

   

Sweet girl wrote her name in the sand...

...and Mom :)

After rides we headed to Jake's for dinner...Missy wrote the whole alphabet!

  

 

Saturday evening I wanted to get some pictures of the kiddos on the beach...it was such a pretty day!

Someone insisted on wearing their rain boots to the beach...whatever!

I'm pretty obsessed with this one!

   

"If you guys do a good job taking pictures, you can have a popsicle when we get back to the condo!"

  

Please note the melted popsicle oozing down his belly! :)

We had SUCH a great trip!!  It was so much fun and the kids had a blast.  They both LOVE the beach and LOVE the water.  It's priceless making these awesome family memories!  We're so blessed.
