A Week at the Beach

And a week was not long enough for this mommy! It always takes me about 3 days to realize I'm on vacation, for the wheels to quit turning and relaxation to kick in. Why is that?

We returned to FL this year, just a different area. We had a great time. The place we stayed has been completely rebuilt since being destroyed by a hurricane several years ago. It is located off the main highway and we were so surprised that there were not more people.

Anna had a great time getting reacquainted her Papa, Nana, Aunt Dena, and Cousins, Hannah and Cody. She loved the beach because she loves being outside. She enjoyed quality time in the condo with nana and papa in the afternoons. Jeff and I enjoyed quality time beside the ocean. Anna also loved the pool. She loves her bath time so this was not shocking. However, she couldn't figure out why there were other people in her big bath tub.

We took over 400 pictures with our new digital SLR camera. CRAZY! Here are just a few.

Jeff's family came over on Monday and spent the day with us.

Maybe too much fun. Oh my!
