Boys in the sand







Here are a few pics of the boys playing in the sand!! They have enjoyed the beach greatly! There is a playground on the beach here which we have visited everyday! We are so thankful for it! The boys have done pretty well here...I think they are ready to be in their house though with their cribs again! They haven't been sleeping the greatest either which is a little hard on everyone! But, overall we are doing fine! Thankfully, we only have 1 more week of temporary living and then we get to move into our house next week! Yay!!!

Swimming boys

Well, we've been at the beach for 2 weeks now and the boys have had lots of water time. I had planned on getting them swim lessons..yes, paying for them to learn to swim. I know, I am thoroughly capable of teaching them since I taught swim lessons for 4 or 5 years. But, I was a little nervous about teaching my own children. Well, despite my efforts to not teach...I ended up teaching them being in the water with them everyday for the past 2 weeks. Kevin also helped out on the weekends! So, they did pretty well and love going swimming. I also had to concede and have them in life jackets when I was by myself...but, it hasn't seemed to ruin them yet. So, that is good!! I thought I'd put up some pics and try doing a video of them swimming. They are little fish...of course, you can't leave their sides as they have no fear and want to swim, swim, swim!!!

More Fun pics







Fun, Fun, Fun









Well as Kevin likes to say we have had some fun adventures the last few weeks. We made it to my brothers in N. Carolina on Wednesday, the 24th at 11 pm. We thought the packers would be done earlier on Wednesday so we had planned to leave when they finished...however, they didn't finish until 2 pm. And Kevin wanted to push on and make it to N. Carolina. So, it was a little bit of a long day, but the boys were troopers and did well. Thank you Lord for that!

We then spent about 5 days with my brother and pretty much my side of the family. We celebrated my Grandpa's 92nd birthday on Saturday and had a rousing whiffle ball game. And had lots of yummy food! We also got to see the newborn girl twins...they are soo cute and cuddly! Congrats to my brother Mark and his wife Bonnie...their twin girls are so sweet!

We then spent time with Kevin's sister Liz and her family...my boys had a great time with their boy cousins. We went swimming many days and played outside! Our boys love the water and are a bit fearless in a big pool. We'll have to work on some swim lessons soon!

Enjoy the pics!
