More fun at Sea World!

We all took a trip to Sea World with Tasha and her sister, Vanessa, Gramma Esther, Tyler and Cash. It was a hot day and we even got to try out the water park. Gramma is wearing the yellow shirt here with her hands in the air. She's so brave going "no hands" on the Shamu Express!

It was Tyler's birthday and everyone on the roller coaster and waiting in line sang happy birthday to him.

Last day of vacation

On our last day of vacation, we snapped a couple of pictures on the boardwalk and then took off for Pensacola to go the Naval Museum of Aviation History. This museum is such a cool place.

Night time crabbin'

When it gets dark on the beach, it comes alive with little crabs. When you shine your flashlight down the beach you can see them scurrying all over the place. We caught a few - Here is one to the left of the picture -

Alex caught one -

Here is everyone ready for more crabbin'. Once we would catch them, we would release them back onto the beach. What a fun past time!

More vacation pictures

The sand was perfect for lots of castles:

The boys got boogie boards and had a blast surfing the waves in the ocean:

Gulf Shores Vacation

We took a summer vacation trip to Gulf Shores, Alabama. We all absolutely love it there! The beaches are beautiful and the place where we stay, Martinique on the Gulf, just can't be beat.

Happy 4th of July!

Handsome family getting ready to go to the 4th of July Parade. Cub Scouts were marching in the parade again this year.

Pre-4th of July fun

We had a get together with some of our best friends, Ben and Paige. Our parents always enjoy getting together and so do we. Gracie loves Paige and the boys enjoy Ben. All in all, each one of us gets along perfectly with the other.
Here are Gracie and Paige cuddling up for the night: Here are Adam and Ben:

Gracie tuckered out in a chair and did not want to be moved so we left her there and threw Paige's blanket over her.
