Sea Island

Thank you to The Jones' for a fabulous beach trip! Ryder's first trip to the ocean was perfect. We are so happy we could share it with the Jones', McCord's and Lacy's.

Although Ryder did not love the sand but he sure enjoyed running in and out of the ocean for the first time. On Friday night the Jeep Train took us out past the beach club to look for seashells.

He HATED looking for seashells because it is muddy - heaven forbid we get our feet dirty! But the Jeep Train is still part of our daily conversation.

Ice cream is always a highlight of a childs day espically if the ice cream store has a train riding around the store!" Everyone look, a train!!!!" "Bye bye Train" "Everyone look, here comes the train again!!" and on and on and on.....

Try getting 5 kids to sit still after eating ice cream.

We loved watching all the fisherman catch "sishy's" off the pier.

Sometimes you just need a little time to hang around the house playing ball..

catching flies...

and just generally climbing on things.

But really the beach is all about swimming- get your noodle and hop in!

try to dig your way to china,

or just sit and hang out in the water.

Does this remind anyone of high school and the breakstand?

I love this picture of Hank, Ella Kate & Gunner.

Bye Bye beach- we miss you already!! We will never forget our first trip to the beach, the jeep train, Sweet Treats Ice Cream store, or the wonderful company!
