Devaney and the face she made when I said "cheese!"


There were lots of races...and not just normal races. Not sure what this one was, but Olivia and Danica look A.W.E.S.O.M.E.

Yay for all the sand I could ever eat!

Lots of the races ended in running into Wyatt and a floaty toy.

Yes, that is my little brother. But he's pretty much all artificial. haahaa. His knees aren't his anymore, and pretty soon his wrist and hand will be all reconstructed. Haahaa.

More floaty toy races.

This was our great spot on the beach.

Tim and Harriet enjoying the waves.

Ruthie enjoying a spoonful of sand. Yum!

Wyatt and Ethan racing across the beach.

More races. Andrea, Myles, Garrett, Danica, Olivia.

Everyone splashing into the water at the end of the race.

Eli had that princess life jacket on the whole time. Awesome. He also was great at keeping Ruth occupied.

The boat coming in for a switch in riders.

Olivia, Danica, Myles, Garrett.

The cutest babe on the beach.

Some of the races involved obstacles, and circling them certain amounts of times. (Not positive, but I'm sure Wyatt must've been part of the creation of these races)

Another end to a running race. Kali, Brynne, Anders, Hailey, Lynnaea, Kiersten.

I LOVE this picture. Jack-Jack and this truck went everywhere together. So adorable.

More Jack and truck.

Megan, Natalie, Devaney

One of Wyatt's paddle boats drifted really far and we thought we had lost it for awhile. Mom told all the little kids to start walking down the shore and look. Emeline, Jack, Cassidy.
The best part of this day was going out on the boat. Ruth had a life jacket on with a big neck floatation on the back, so she couldn't move her head at all. I looked down one time and she was fast asleep with her head straight up because the life jacket wouldn't let her lay it down!!! It was so hilarious. Ethan was amazed that anyone could fall asleep on the noisy boat with the music blasting.  I skiied for about five minutes before I realized I am a lazy bum with no strength and gave out. At least I wasn't incredibly sore the next day like everyone else! Sterling, unfortunately, had class that morning and then had to take a test in the afternoon, but he did come join for dinner...mac 'n cheese for the kiddos and cheese, chips, salsa, hot wings, and all sorts of desserts for the adults.

Great pictures!!! Love the one of Jack jack. So many are cute and fun. It is Ethan's pinky finger getting operated on, not his wrist and hand. Glad you got some of the races. I missed seeing the ones of the littler crowd.

Yeah, but Ethan said that they had to take tendon, or muscle or something from his wrist. Anyway.
