Just what the doctor ordered...

I didn't know how much I needed this brief respite until now.  We made a lightening, less-than-24-hour beach trip on Monday/Tuesday.  My brother rented a place for the week so we crashed there.

It was a blast! Beach time, pool time, seafood and of course ICE CREAM!
While it would have been nice to stay longer, I'll take it :)

Chloe and my Dad enjoying the morning on the deck.

Family photo op!


Liam rocking the kick board...this is day 2.  He spent the first day rolling in the surf. 
Mike started singing "Wicked Game" by Chris Isaak...it cracked us up!

I didn't get a great pic of Chloe but she LOVED the sand and water...
I think we only make beach babies :)

Cousins in the morning

Michael doing his "Bay Watch" run

Liam post-wipe out...he wiped his eyes and got right back to business
Michael post-wipe out.  He really got tossed around...in the surf, not even "in" the ocean.
The waves were BIG and very rough...I love the ocean but had a hard time getting past the breaking point of the waves.
They were powerful, both days.  Either I am getting old or the water really was abnormally rough.


 Now it's back to reality and a broken dryer with all this beach stuff to wash.  HOW did we make so much laundry in a mere 2 days?!
