Beachy beachy beachy

This past weekend the weather was finally nice enough to take the kids to the beach.
We were expecting 87 degrees, but we had to settle for 78 degrees.
At least it wasn't raining!




No idea who the girl with the stick is. lol


Here is one way to get rid of your pesky little sister.
Just kidding! She was having fun.

We didn't realize it until we got there, but we happened to get there about an hour before the ski-sprites put on their show. The ski-sprites are a local water skiing team. This was my first time seeing them. I thought the skiers were entertaining, but the commentary was quite annoying. Here is a quote from their site, "The show is born with the selection of a show theme or story line. This story line is simply an entertaining story that is told to thread together the skiing acts to entertain the audience." Maybe it was this particular story line, but it really kind of ruined the show. The basic idea of the story, one guy was explaining to another guy about a made up social network called ski-book aka facebook (if I remember right) and basically explaining how it worked. I'm sure others thought it was great.




Lia enjoying the show and clapping constantly. :)


Approaching the jump and


landing. Yeah, I never actually got a shot of anyone in the air.
All in all the show was good.
The kids thought it was a great addition to their beach time.

Summer has taken over


I've been busy doing summer things with the family I forget to update my blog.
Poor poor bloggy I swear I haven't forgotten you. :)


The kids and I transplanting a house plant.


Trying to take a nice picture is sometimes impossible.

This past weekend the hubby and I went camping with some friends.

Spent a little time out on the boat before it started raining.
