Annual Beach Trip

As Jill mentioned in a previous post, we had a great time at the beach. Having just gone through Emmy’s hospital ordeal for most of July/early August we had to push our trip back a couple weeks till late Aug. But that turned out to be a blessing in disguise as crowds and traffic was light.

The theme park was a hit (that’s Abby and I getting ready to “take off”) although Jill and I both almost threw up several times. Pop taught Abby how to catch a wave on the boggie board and I must have pulled Abby and Mikey on that board in the surf 100 times. We also had fun with Uncle Mike, Mikey and Grandma/Pop plus Nan and Pop stopping by for beach fun and subs. Emmy enjoyed getting sand in every possible location in her body. I think she must have eaten 4 handfuls throughout the week. She also enjoyed the rides, eating a huge ice cream cone and attacking me with her big sister.

As always, thanks to Poppa Sonny and Deb for letting us use the condo. We look forward to our week at the beach every year and this year didn't disappoint!
