Here are the last of my beach pictures. I have a few videos to share but these are it as far as my pictures go. I still hope to get some from my brother-in-law.
We cooked at the condo a few nights and one night while Uncle Jonathan was grilling Tim and Baby A went exploring. I stayed upstairs with two tired boys who were sucked in to The Lion King movie. I caught these pictures of Tim and Baby A from the balcony.
Uncle Jonathan doing his thing and grilling some yummy chicken for dinner.
We were out on the beach by 8:30 every morning and since Baby A was up at 5:30 every morning you can see from the picture above that she was sleepy by 8:30.
She always had a second wind though
Sand fun
Baby A liked to spread her towel out next to mine and "tan" next to me.
She lasted maybe 5 minutes each time.
There were lizards all over he place. We have never seen lizards at the beach before. Of course my boys had to try and catch them. Believe it or not they could NOT catch them. I consider my boys pretty skilled when it comes to catching lizards but these little things were fast. Well while trying to take family pictures Scooter caught one finally. It was a baby so I am guessing it just wasn't as fast. I actually found these little lizards pretty cute. I still wouldn't touch them though.
My sweet sweet Rascal
I LOVE this picture! Baby A is a daddy's girl for sure.
Tim snapped this picture as Baby A laid on the swing one evening.
The last full day we had at the beach it rained that morning. Only until about 9:00 so it didn't ruin the day. It was so relaxing to sit on the balcony and watch the storm move across the water.
Before the storm hit we watched the sun rise into the cloudy sky and the sun cast a "spotlight" over the water.
Then the rained moved out and we headed down to the beach. Oh and I should add that Tim and his brothers got up early that morning and headed down to fish. Once the rained moved in, they just continued to fish in the rain.
The water was crazy calm after the rain.
Scooter wasted no time and got to looking for things in the water.
Rascal was right behind him searching the water too.
Baby A stood close to me and played and splashed in the water. Later that day she even got in a tube by herself and rode the waves. Her daddy was right there close by though.
These two pictures show how cam the water was
That night we went to a new place to eat. It was called The Gulf and it had an amazing view.
The morning we were heading home I took the kids down tot he beach to get them out of the way while the guys packed up the cars.
I am so glad we went down there because we saw the prettiest rainbow over the beach.
Rain was moving in so it didn't stay long. I love this picture above. My babies, the beach and a rainbow....... perfection!
I wanted to get a few last pictures of the three of them on the beach and then I just let them run wild.
They played and laughed and ran and ran and ran some more.
Then it was time to hit the road and head home.
We had a great relaxing week with no one sick, no trips to the minor medical or to the emergency room. That's a first in 5 years! Tim also had a relaxing week with no work emails, work phone calls or stress of work hanging over him and He had no work trips scheduled for when he got home! God is SO good!





























Wow you guys got out there early! If it were a bit warmer where we were, we would have done the same thing. At Seaside there are tons of lizards. We noticed them there last year too. I actually caught one with Aliyah's shoe. I did NOT touch it. But I'm with you, they are pretty cute! I agree, adorable kids, the beach, the rainbow...ahhh I could live in FL I think. LOVE your kids! They are SO cute!! I am soooo glad no one got sick or hurt this year and for Tim's work! God IS so good!!
