Beach Trip - Family Fun Photos - Part 3 and Final

Finally, Redding isn't afraid of the waterLast day at the beach was supposed to be rainy and overcast.

It wasn't. Good for people arriving but not so good for people trying to leave. My attempt at a cute "brothers" picture was very unsuccessful

Please, Mommy, I am not ready to go yet...

A few of our favorite things about this trip...

• Playing on the beach and feeding the birds
• Redding eating the popcorn and not feeding it to the birds
• Smashing sandcastles and covering Geep in sand
• Relay races on the beach
• No sleep. The boys did not adjust to their sleeping arrangements very well
• The boys finally getting into the ocean. Leyton was very brave this year
• Deciding which would be the best mini golf course for the evening
• Dennis throwing up off the back of the fishing boat
• The baby pool
• Having the family together. We enjoyed our vacation with Mimi and Geep!

The End!

The Whole FamilyRedding is pretty good about letting you take his picture

The boys liked to ride their floats in the room until we could get them outside.

That is, until Redding popped his. Oh, crash! Action shotWe had a great time at the beach and can't wait to go again.

Maybe Aunt LaLa and Uncle James can join us next year.

My attempt at a picture with the boys. Looking very grown up! Victory pose! Hole-in-one! Contemplating the shot. Or not.

Redding's "Goodnight Gorilla" Face

"Goodnight Gorilla" Face The boys and their putters Leyton enjoyed playing on the beach and in the pools but his first love was playing putt-putt! He wanted to go everyday, from the moment he woke up until the moment he went!

We played Dinosaur golf, Mutiny Bay, Pirate golf, and Mayday (Helicopters and airplanes). Deciding which place to visit was Leyton's big decision of the day.

He made a few hole-in-one's. The kid is good.

Date NightOn the golf courseNo, I didn't eat it. Catch and Release. Poor, defenseless little fish The headless golfer

(I thought this picture was hilarious. Dennis did not see the humor) Dennis and I had some time away while on vacation. We went fishing and played a little golf . Of course, we went to our FAVORITE restaurant (Villa Romana) and then headed to the arcade for game time.

Don't worry, still more vacation photos to come...

Beach Trip - Bird Photos

An everyday, favorite activity of ours while at the beach was feeding and chasing birds. Leyton was convinced that he could catch one and a few times I thought he might.

The birds food of choice: Popcorn, of course!

Evidently, popcorn was Redding's food of choice as well!
