Our Vacation







It has been almost a week since we returned home from our beach vacation and things are back to normal so much so that it seems like a distant memory. What a wonderful time we had! It was pure joy to spend so much time together as a family.


The boys had a great time. The little ones loved eating sand and dumping it on their heads. They also rode their first kiddie rides at the Boardwalk.









Brendan was such a big kid- riding the waves and his first Upside Down Roller Coaster!


I loved staying in our small 2 bedroom condo- there was something so quaint and peaceful about tucking all our children into bed in the same room and having them eat, play, & read in such close quarters. It really made out own home seem huge. I wonder if I would enjoy such close quarters for day to day living?
On the way home Shane surprised us by stopping at a park in a tiny country town so we could eat lunch and stretch our legs. It was so wonderful it felt like a dream. I am so thankful that the Lord has blessed me with my husband &children. I am so in love with all of them that I feel as if my heart could burst.

I love vacations! I love the laid back family time. No worry about chores or time. Spending the whole day enjoying each little smile!
