Beach Trip - We made it!!!

It's officially summer and we kicked it off with a trip to Fort Walton Beach, FL for a week!  Woo hoo!  We came with our good friends, The Fords, and so far, so good.  We made the long drive yesterday with little to no trouble other then why does it seem like the last 2 hours of getting to the beach seem like an eternity???  But, nevertheless, we made it.  Here are some pictures of the fun times so far....

When we got here Saturday evening, we hit the beach to put our fingers.......

......and toes in the sand.


Erik made Elaina's name out of the seaweed, and Elaina posed for a picture with it


The girls got matching Hello Kitty jammies - they were a hit.  They hit the hay Saturday night to get ready for a long day

One more picture from Saturday evening.... Tami walking down the beach with Olivia and Isaac.  Very sweet.
First full day in the sun.....  Elaina loves the water.  Such a nice change from when we came a few years ago.  She's all about it now that she is a bit older.  She and Erik got a lot of good play time in the ocean


A family pose....

After the pool, lunch, and naps, we took another trip to the beach for some sand castle building.  The kids made a "city" with a wall around it.  City complete with church, fire station, and tunnel.  Here are the architects and constructors of the great city - Isaac, Elaina, Olivia, and Tami.
