Annual Beach Trip

So I have a couple of posts to write. The first one is about the Annual Beach trip. Since the children were little, my mother has taken the grandkids here for a week on the beach. This year they went to Camano Island. I usually don’t go. This year, Benjamin went up for a couple of days, hence pictures on my camera! So I actually get to post. :D

There are a ton of pictures. Easily 200 were taken in one afternoon. These are some of my favs:

 

Kathryn showing off. Gee, what a surprise.

 

 

My boy playing in the bubbles.

 

Lily doing her favorite thing in the whole world: Playing with bubbles.

The partners in crime.

Kjelly drinking the water. Oh, all the germs… and my mother gets upset when Lily shares her yogurt with Skeeter? (my dad’s dog)

Kjelly attempting to ride the logs… He’s trying to copy the older kids.

Here’s Erik trying to stay afloat while they are having their water war.

Here is Erik riding the logs.

Benjamin riding the logs. They all had a great time doing this.

 

Karl helping with Lily. She didn’t really care for the water.

 

Here he is snuggling with her. He’s such an awesome cousin.

He’s also… um, very hot for being 13. Example:

 

It’s no wonder he has girls all over him.

 

Here are some of Lily messing around on the beach. She went with Benjamin and was there only overnight.

Checking out the family playing in the water. She can’t figure out why they like playing in the water.

She just loves her bubbles.

And the finale….

Yes, Lauren is actually EATING it. (for the camera only)

Question of the day: What is your favorite family vacation. Why?
