We are back from our beach vacation! It is always fun to go but always fun to get home. Today has been spent with all the “after vacation” fun: unpacking, washing, vacuuming the van, washing, grocery shopping, washing, sorting the mail, washing.
Highlights of this year’s trip:
*We stayed in a hotel for two nights. We’ve never taken our crew to a hotel. At the beach, we stay in a house owned by a friend, but we couldn’t check in until Saturday, so we stayed Thursday and Friday in a hotel. The hotel was great with lots of pools and on the beach front, but we were all in one room which was an adventure!
*Charles coughed and coughed so much that I had to walk the beach with him from midnight to four am the first night. We were all in a hotel room together, and he couldn’t breathe and was keeping everyone awake. He struggled with that cough all week, but that first night was the worst.
*We took Kathryne to get her ears pierced at a real piercing place at the beach- her ten year old birthday present.
*Rachel busted my lip while we were out shopping for sunglasses in a beach store. She jumped up while I was leaning over and hit my lip hard with her head. I had quite a bit of bleeding and swelling. The lady at the cash register was rather concerned.
All in all, we had a great time. We were able to stay longer this year than I think we ever have. We played on the water, flew kites, watched fireworks, at ice cream, and did all the fun beach stuff we usually do.
