Double Duty ~ Vacation 2011

We started out this morning at the beach, but after Reagan got some sand in an unfortunate area, we headed back to the pool.

We also went and had ice cream again tonight, but there are no pictures to document it ~ I guess that means there are no calories either!!!

Back at the Beach! ~ Vacation 2011

We made it to the beach again today!!!  The kids had a so much fun picking sea shells and jumping waves again today.  We spent a couple of hours on the beach then moved to the pool to practice swimming, had lunch and then Reagan went back to the pool while Cooper took a much needed nap.

Bubba graciously took a picture to prove I was on vacation too!

after dinner, we headed back to the FROZEN MOO for more ice cream

 Reagan was allowed to get TWO scoops of ice cream tonight because she swam the entire length of the pool twice!  She ate every.single.bite!

They Did What? ~ Vacation 2011

On our first full day of vacation, we started out at the BEACH!!  I can't tell you how happy that makes me!  For the past couple of years, Reagan and Cooper have hated going to the beach ~ so much so that I gave in and we spent all our time at the pool as to avoid having unnecessary tantrums.  But today, we were on the BEACH, playing in the sand, jumping waves and having a great time.  See for yourself!!

Of course, we had ice cream from the FROZEN MOO for dessert
