This year we went to the beach with my parents the week before the 4th of July. We had a great time and we are amazed at how much easier the kids are to handle each year. They had a blast playing in the sand this year. Our biggest accomplishments were that they would go and get their own water from the ocean. As you may realize, this meant that we didn't have to get up every 5 seconds to go get them water. They were able to make their own castles and they were entertained each day for hours down at the beach without crying for the pool. This year they loved the water. They wanted to be out in the water jumping waves all the time. Of course the pool was awesome too. Reagan has learned how to swim and will jump off the side of the pool and swim all the way to the other side. We are so proud of her since last summer she didn't even want her head under water. We had a great trip and as always we will look forward to this trip next year. Here is a slide show of some of our pictures.
