First Full Day

And a full day it was!  We got out early and stayed until lunch.  All nine of us!  It is the most time Michael has spent on the beach in all our years combined!

 

Trevor and Alaire made a dolphin.

Lisa Reed, this one is for you.  He sits in his beach chair just like his regular chair.

The man and his castle.

 

So after lunch everyone did their own thing...naps, video games, TV...Michael and Wyatt even worked on their Summer reading homework.

Cassie and Emmy fixed dinner and Mark, Trevor, and I were clean up crew.  As with tradition established by Peep, it was ice cream at one of our favorites...

Just not the same without Peep.

We FaceTimed with him so he wouldn't feel too awfully left out.

A little after dinner surfing by the Oakes boys.

It was just a little bit too dangerous for this one.

And he was distraught!

 

The peanut gallery.

 

ACTION SHOTS

 Alaire giving Pappy jumping lessons.

So now we are all inside fighting over the Aloe After Sun Gel!  And I think Pappy did something to his back.
