1st Trip to the Beach

Prior to the start of school we took a family vacation to Ocean City, NJ August 15-18.

















This was Hope's and Matt's first trip to the shore. Hope loved it and was quite proud of the fact that after she got used to the waves hitting her legs, she found her balance and could stand all by herself on her flat feet and not fall down.


















Matt loved playing in the "sandpit", but didn't like the water because "the sharks are going to eat me".



















Tim saved his allowance money to buy himself a boogie board (his first purchase with his own money) and had a great time riding it (as did mom).















Getting ready for a surrey ride on the boardwalk. Mom and Dad will be glad when someone else has long enough legs to help pedal!

Hey, looks like a great vacation. And those school kids look wonderful! Matt looks almost as tall as Hope - really?
Riley started Kindergarten which was a little hard on this Mom.
I wrote a little about it on my blog.
