Some pictures from last week and our 1st day at the beach!

We are enjoying some quiet time at the beach with Grammy and Papa before the school year starts so most of the pictures are from the first day of the beach but there are some cute ones that I couln't resist from home.

Good Morning hugs for Grammy! Annie was so excited to wake up this morning and find that we were still at the beach house. She was even more excited when Grammy came down the stairs a little later (after 9 if you're counting). The kids love going to sleep and waking up with my parents and tomorrow will be a great day because the Fife and Drum Corp parade is right up the street - nobody loves parades like Peter, Molly and Annie! I can't wait! GNM - ILY!
