Home again...but not for long

We arrived home from the beach last night. We had a great trip that, of course, seemed too short. We were scheming up ways to stay another week, but alas we are home. C did great this year. He loved the ocean, especially body surfing. We had great weather all week, but we had double red flags on 3 days. I did not even know that double red flags existed, but apparently it means the ocean is closed. The beach police were driving on the beach to warn people of te strong undertow. C really liked the pool, too. He is getting pretty brave swimming on his own. AP, on the other hand, preferred to stay in the condo. This is not because she did not like the sand or the water, but more because she could not crawl wherever she wanted to, like directly into the ocean or headfirst into the pool. She is a very independent little booger. She tolerated the float in the pool, but only for short periods. We took a little baby tent to the beach so she would have shade, but she thought it was cruel and unusual punishment to have to get in it. Her favorite part of the beach was a little kiddie pool we put in the sand. She liked splashing in that with her toys, but only for a short while. Here are a few of my favorite pics from the week...
We started VBS today at our church. I am teaching C's class and boy are they a handful.

Love the images from your vacation!! Your kiddos are so cute and the pic of them together in the sand is precious.

Ol' Bonnie Prince Charlie was quite the little Beach Bum a couple years ago.

Must be nice to have enough money to drive places, what with Big Oil grabbing all the money they can stuff into their pockets.
