Our Beach Vacation

We just got back from our annual trek to Myrtle Beach and had an enjoyable time!  We arrived on Thursday and our first order of business was to play mini-golf at the Dinosaur golf course.  We also got to see Uncle Sammy and Aunt Nancy for a little while.


Friday morning we took a walk on the beach before spending the day at the water park and pool.  That evening while Grace enjoyed the kids night out activities, David, Adam and I took a walk around the resort.

Saturday was also spent lounging by the pool and playing in the water park, although Grace and I snuck over to the beach for some fun in the waves before coming back to the hotel to take a nap before dinner.

Finally this morning after loading the car, we took a ride over to Broadway at the Beach to walk around before heading home. 


Only three and a half weeks left until school starts and Grace can't wait.  All we have left to do is pick up some new school clothes and shop for school supplies and we'll be ready!  Enjoy these last few days of summer vacation everyone.

Trying to Catch Up

It's not that I don't want to post pictures and talk about our trip to NJ - it's just that I haven't had time. 

When we got back, Adam was still a little cruddy and I had to take him to the doctor.  They tested him for strep, checked him for other viruses and found nothing.  The only thing the doctor suggested is that we take him off of milk, in case he is developing a milk allergy, and see if that helps - it has!  So for now Adam is drinking almond milk but still enjoying other dairy products derived from cows.

Grace was excited to get back to her friends and activities.  In fact she started tumble class last night in preparation for taking it during the year instead of dance.  We'll see how it goes.

I promise to upload pictures this weekend.  The whole problem with digital photos is that you see them when you take them and only when you decide to put them in albums do you actually need them.  And let's just say I am a tad behind on that - both Grace and Adam's 2010 photo albums have yet to be filled and while I have almost finished Grace's first year of life scrapbook with photos and pictures prepped for years 2 - 7 Adam's is no where near ready.
