Enjoying It While We Can!

We are trying to get all the beach time in that we can before the oil gets here! Last night some friends of ours invited us to go out in the bay with them on their boat. It was awesome! We packed a picnic supper and left around 5:30. While driving out to the island that was our destination, the Blue Angels flew right over our heads. It was amazing!! We ate supper, watched the sun set and rode back to the boat dock. It was a late night for the kids (we got home around 8:45) but totally worth it. How many nights will we get to spend like that in our lives? Thanks Robin and Steve!! Here are some pictures from last night:

Today the kids and I met some friends at the beach for a picnic lunch. Bryce has been having a great time swimming this year. He and Wyatt stayed in the water the whole time today! The weather was great today, warm with a nice breeze blowing so we never got too hot. CeCe had fun sitting by the edge of the water and letting the waves run over her feet. She doesn't mind the sand at all and luckily doesn't eat too much of it!
Here is Bryce and Wyatt swimming

She and I hung out under the umbrella most of the day to stay shaded.

I am so jealous! My grandmother owned a house in Orange Beach, until Ivan blew it away and we sold the property. I use to spend all summer at the beach. I would take advantage of it too! I love the picture of CeCe with her feet crossed on the beach...she is such a cutie!!
