Just thought I'd post a pic from our deck...

I hear there's sand monkeys round these parts...

Sunset Beach 2007

Some pics from our last day at the beach

Momma and Ash chillin' outside a restaurant...
Two cousins playing in the sand..it was so hard to keep them together long enough to take a pic...
On our way to the beach for an evening stroll...pack 'em on and head out!
Daddy decided to bury Ethan in the sand when Momma left to put Ashlyn down for a nap....not too thrilled he was that close to the water...but he looked like he had fun..
"I like having my cousins here to play with!"

Don't ask me why..I just like to take pics of our feet..There's Momma's, Ash's, Daddy's & Ethan's...
"Look at the boat.."
I love my little surfer girl...
Grammy & Grampy with all but one grandchild...Can you tell it's hard to get a good pic of all of them?

Ethan loved seeing the boats..
Cool dude! "How ya like my soul patch?"
Cousin Jamie came out for a visit...Thanks! We hope to see you again within the next 4 years!

This was Ash's 1st experience of the ocean..she wasn't there 10 seconds before fisting some sand into her mouth...crunch crunch!!
Momma and her beach bums..
Daddy building sandcastles with the critters...
Too bad you wouldn't leave that cute hat on, baby girl..
Ethan's obsessed with street signs..and loved this one on the way to the beach everyday..
