Spring Break


We are now home from Spring Break. Laundry, cooking, and unpacking make us quickly remember why we love vacation so much. We had a wonderful time in Florida at Grayton Beach. It was our 2nd year in a row to go with Brooke's family to stay in a beach house. The weather some days was chilly as seen in the above picture (click on picture to enlarge), however, we did have one day in the upper 70's.

The highlight of our first day was Jonathan loosing his first tooth. He was eating pizza when he noticed his tooth was suddenly missing. Needless to say, his pizza must have been a bit crunchier that evening! What a big boy.

Grace enjoyed being at the beach with the family, but she was not interested in getting any sand on her. She stayed on the beach blanket or in someone's arms, but she did not explore the land as we had anticipated. What a beach beauty.

David could live on the beach 24/7. He can hardly look at video footage or pictures without asking when we are going back. He was much braver this year about standing near the waves, but he still preferred the small inlet of lake water next to the ocean. David is our little fish.

There is a lake next to our beach house that joins the ocean in high tide. It has a small channel of water that heads towards the ocean that the kids love playing in. This picture shows the deeper section in which they pretend to swim. We only had one day warm enough for them to get submerged in the water.


On a cooler day the kids voted for the option of sand burial. This was a hilarious moment on the beach. At one point there were three floating heads on the sand. David needed help digging himself out of the sand. Jonathan and Katherine wanted to nap there.

Our good looking daddy.

The whole family enjoys daddy's time off from work. We can't wait until next year's beach trip.
