First Day of School

 So the hard part of doing a beach trip in late August is that school is right around the corner.  Avery was pretty excited about it though.
 Carter also got a new classroom at daycare.  He could hardly contain his excitement...

The walk into her first day of first grade.  When did she get so big?
Lily was there to meet her, but they didn't end up in the same class.  (Probably good for the teacher)
 One last hug for Mommy

 Getting started on her work already!

Beach Trip

So in August we actually took a full week's vacation at the Beach with my family.  We have done a lot of things the past few weeks of which blogging is not one of them.

Carter of course had a blast playing in the sand.  Here he is getting buried.
 The eclipse happened while we were at the beach.  We all had funny looking glasses to watch the eclipse.  We only got 99.3% coverage, which you would think would have been good enough, but it was not.

 The kids has blast on the beach all week.  Avery mastered boogie boarding and I mastered pulling her out into the waves.  Carter mastered playing in the sand and getting himself buried again.



Gigi brought some random toys, so the kids formed a superhero group and fought crime after dinner.

It was so much fun to watch these two play together all week.  There were fights of course, but they really do love each other.

 Doing their beach yoga while keeping an eye on birds to chase.

Did I mention that Carter really really enjoyed the sand?
 The motley crew for the week.
