Beach Vacation Day 1

I uploaded my pictures from the vacation as soon as we got home, all 970 of the pictures I took. Plus the 100+ that my brother in law Lee took, oh and the iPhone pictures that I will eventually upload for an iPhone offload. Needless to say, there are a lot of pictures so I'm breaking it down by day. Be prepared for a lot of sandy babies, Nolan running around and sunsets. You have been warned, it's a lot of the same since we pretty much lived on the beach.

Day 1 included our travel down there. It went pretty well since we had a stop in Vancouver to drop off Ruby at her Aunt Cheryl's house. We thought about taking her but she's a bit unruly so we will wait until she's calmed down a bit to take her on vacations with us.

All our traveling pics are on the iPhone but there was a lot of napping, drawing on Nolan's activity center and a little DVD watching when they got antsy. But we got there all in one piece and hit the beach right away. Pat was unloading the car while I took the kids down to the beach to take a look around. Both kids ran straight into the water...fully dressed. It didn't really matter since it was raining but they got cold quickly so we went back home for dinner. After dinner the sun came out so we threw our swimsuits on and headed back for a much more prepared trip #2.
What a difference an hour makes on the coast! Still in coats but were plenty warm in our shorts and sandals.
 I told you about all the running right?
Oh and sand eating. Miles is now made up of 50% sand. It's only fair, Nolan is 50% Hawaiian sand and he's ok.







We brought home at least 1/3 of the beach in Miles' nooks and crannies.
 Back home to dry off and then we stopped across the street for some ice cream and playground fun.
