July Beach Trip

Hello everyone! I am going to go ahead and apologize for this post. Even though I love all the pictures a slideshow would have definitely been easier for you guys to look at the pictures. However, our other computer is in need of some repair so I did not have the same software with me. Anyway, we had a great time at the beach. The water was a bit rough but we still had an amazing time. Lots to enjoy!

A tiny little horseshoe crab. They were everywhere.
Great picture of Joshy getting to check out an open scallop...it squirted at him.
Joshua shared a sand dollar with Millie and she chose to "put it back," by burying it.

We had to get some family beach pictures so of course what do we do...not look at the camera at all but they seem to turn out better that way anyway.
Three amigos!
Love digging in the sand.
Millie is taking time to show off her digging masterpiece.
Meghan was so sweet to help take pictures for us! I feel it wasn't long ago she was the same ages as Millie and Joshua.
Cheese!
Are we really doing this? AGAIN?
A little zoned out on this one.
He look so old in this one.
Love this!
The fact that they sat still for this long for pictures was pretty amazing. Thank goodness for the sand!
All of us and our cheesy faces!
Waiting for the BIG ONE!
Taking a stroll.
On the run! When is she not?
Cool! The only way to describe it.
Getting to touch Joshua's first catch.
Joshua reeled this one in all by himself! His first catch! It was too fun!
Mom..Mom...MOM...put the camera down please.
Taking after Don Don and Uncle Bub already.
Little Fisherman
Millie likes to get out there herself too!
We have a real "hands on" group. Brad would bring in the fish he caught for the kiddos to touch and see.
Checking out the lovely shrimp for bait. As they say, "oooo gross"
Joshua is super happy about this picture.
Good shot of Bub and Bekah.
Joshua had these goggles he just had to wear the entire night.
Great picture with Grandmommy!
Just relaxing after dinner.
Okay, so Millie had the spa treatment. Meghan and Madison painted her fingernails and toenails. I couldn't believe she sat still through the entire thing. She ate it up!
Millie a little fish. She loved to jump and she and Bekah played forever.
On the trail back from the Bay.
Misser carrying Mill Mill back from the Bay with her toadstool.
Tyler carrying the boat back that we used all of 30 seconds. Oops.
The toadstool.
Missy is definitely not going to be happy about this one..she's snoozing! Tyler did it Misser!
Working on our pullups!

Joshua giving Millie pull up lessons.
Meghan and Madi searching for critters.
Brad had found a skate so he showed Joshua.
Millie was starting to get a little tired by this point.
Awe!
The boat!
Joshua showing Millie his 3 huge sand dollars.
Millie keeping grandmommy on her toes by taking a swim.
What can we find???
I think I got something.
A spider crab! Cool!
We are a little sleepy. Ya think?
Just needed a moment with his ear.
The tide washed up under our tent and buried everything. Joshua was digging out this chair.
Loves it!
Enjoying the water.
This is one of the "few" times we could get Joshua to sit still.

Our little water bug. Swims all over the place.
Joshua said no to floaties and loved jumping or being thrown in over and over again.
Wish I would have had my underwater camera for this one but this is still a pretty good underwater shot of Joshy and daddy.
More ear time.
We had a great time building sand castles. Millie is just beginning one.
Enjoying the beach.
Okay so we are pretty much obsessed with Toy Story. We haven't seen the new one yet but I am pretty sure we have watched one and two over a hundred times each. So they wanted a spaceship for Buzz Lightyear built..so this is their spaceship.
Madi and Mill playing in the sand.
This was hilarious. I wish I had a video of Missy, Joshua, Millie and Glenn "throwing" the frisbee.
He yelled each time, " To Infinity and Beyond!"
Excited for the next jump!
Millie taking a picture of Glenn!
Missy teaching Joshua and Millie how to use her camera..yes it ended up breaking. It was on its way out though.
Pool time!
hey!
good times
Jumping far!
They both just decided to lay down in the surf....Millie decided to fly!
Right after the sandcastle was built....destruction set in.
Our sand fortress.
loved filling up the buckets and dumping them out.
Time for a refill.
Bekah and the babies watching the butterfly shells wash out and dig back in the sand.
Silly!
hey!
a little beach hair.
Enjoying some time in the pool since the water was too rough.
Grandmommy and Millie!
What a crowd.

happy little guy.
Missy and Joshy playing by the sea.
A little father daughter time.
Just a quick ride on her tricycle.
This was Joshua's friend Langley's birthday party!
Millie enjoying some tasty watermelon.
