Sunday, June 20



Another beautiful sunny day at the beach!




Uncle Jamey helping Lexi boogie board.


Heeeyyyyy



We spent 8 hours playing at the beach today.

 

Uncle Jamey and Aunt Lauren love their Nieces and Nephews



Ellie, Grams and Pops


I can't get over the amount of plastic they waste cleaning the beaches.  They claim it has something to do with the thickness of the bag needed for the hazardous material only coming in one size, but it really bothered me.


They did a great job cleaning, but it sure is a ton of waste.  Only filling the bags with a couple of scoops of sand, duct taping them closed and on to waste another bag.



 


Miles in his hot tub of the day.


The kids stayed in the pool until Gram's stuffed potatoes and Pop's steaks were ready to eat.

Crabbing with the gang.

I can't get over how curly Jeremiah's hair is in the humidity.

Yay for cousins! Saturday, June 19


Cousins!!  Kylie, Taylor and Ellie got to the beach this morning!!  They brought their parents Aunt Allyson and Uncle Brian too.


They got their suits on and we hit the hot tub, the kids were so happy to have someone to play with.


Again, today the beaches remained a beautiful white with no sign of tar.


Aunt Courtney and her kiddos got in later in the day and we all played at the beach.


They love to caught small fish, snails and crabs to put in their fish bucket.



We all went to dinner at the Crab Trap.  The older cousins got to sit at their own table.  They loved hanging out with out us boring old adults around.  They even ordered calamari and ate it all!


Lexi and Ellie are good pals.


Uncle Jamey wanted to play on the playground so he took Miles with him.  After playing a little he feed Miles soda and crab at the "big kids" table which included Miles, Jamey, Lauren, Garrett and Corrie.

Friday, June 18

We all slept in until 9:30, had Jamey's famous sausage bread the headed to the beach.

Why is Miles always the one sitting while everyone else digs his "hot tub"?






One snow cone please.





The footprints wash away, but the memories, last a lifetime.


We saw no oil today.


Miles caught a snail and named her Rachel after our baby sitter.  It makes me smile to knowing they love Rachel as much as we do. 






Jamey and Garrett cooked us burgers for dinner.


Dinner by the pool with an ocean view.


That's exactly how I feel :)

Yay, Dad arrived last night!  We were all thrilled were to see him and go to the ocean with him.




These folks who were cleaning the tar off the beaches were very friendly and informative.  They were locals hired to clean their own beaches, so they really cared about how well it was cleaned.  We all listened intently as they explained what they were doing to help with the spill.


Heading into the ocean.





Playing in the water with Uncle Jamey and Aunt Lauren.


Trying to catch fish.






The water and beaches were pretty clear of tar, we had to hunt to find some to show Troy what to look out for.


Chilling in his favorite spot, his "hot tub".


One of the several groups of sting rays that passed really close to shore several times a day.  A few times I was in the water and it was so amazing.



More digging making Miles his hot tub.



white beaches, green ocean, blue sky


Hanging with Uncle Garrett.


Handsome green eyed boy.


After a wonderful chicken alfredo dinner prepared Corrie, we went crabbing.


Are we ready for a good time?


Sometimes, the waves come up quicker than you can get the crab...................


but with a little help and a lot of excitement from a couple of fun Uncles............................




he can be caught.








We caught a few of the little guys, Lexi was the winner with the most catches of the night.




Time to let them go.

What a wonderful day, full of giggles!!
