This past weekend was our annual trip to Emerald Isle with my family. We always have so much fun, and this year was no exception. Relaxing and enjoying each others company was exactly what we needed. The boys had just finished their week long sports camp at the YMCA on Friday and we drove down after that. Justin wasn't able to join us until Saturday night because of work, but we were happy he was able to make it at all. Unfortunately the weather was less than perfect this year, but we made the most of it with some relaxing in the cottage watching movies and playing water balloons in the yard between storms. Thank goodness Suzi brought water balloons because they were a life saver and definitely good for a few laughs!
I did a terrible job getting pictures this year. Basically all I got was the boys on the beach and the water balloon war!
Catching sand fleas
Showing Suzi their stash
The boys and my cousin Cassidy. They think she hung the moon!
The war begins :) Reason #857 we love Suzi... she's so much fun!
Pay back
The coolest toy- a canister with a straw and a spout for attaching balloon. Pump the top and voila!
Waiting patiently for more
Suzi was trying to teach Cole to toss it back and forth with her and whoever missed first would get the splash.
It was all going as planned until Cole got bored...
And he nailed her ;-)
Kellen thought that was pretty funny... he wanted in on the sneak attack
Suzi was such a good sport. :)
There was a huge drop off leading up to the ocean this year because of all the beach restoration, so of course Kellen made it into an extreme sport with the help of his Daddy.
Half of our crew
Finger lickin' good :)
Flying the kite with style
Making a dinosaur trail with Nina
I'm already looking forward to next year!
