Surf's Up

We spent Saturday afternoon at the beach visiting Roddy's sister and neice who are down for the week.

Gray spent lots of time on the surfboard this trip.  The waves were pretty calm but that's perfect for surfers-in-training.

A little male bonding.

Jay and Emma tried it out but weren't up for standing. 

Charlie took a quick turn too.

Iris kept to the boogie board.

Beach Trip

Before I post our Chicago trip I want to get some pictures posted of our Spring Break in New Smyrna with Tiffanie and Preston and their boys.


Thursday the moms and kids headed over. The dads joined us Friday afternoon.


Hanging out on top the Excursion.Iris, Day 2, zonked out...Getting ready to take a walk Friday night...
Here's the surf instructor aka Roddy.

Iris stuck with boogie boarding. The dads got the kids started on a dad-sized sandcastle.
The kids had a blast. We got nice and tan...and exhausted. Lots of fun memories were made, though!!

The Beach

Friday afternoon we drove to the Beach. Hubby's parents are vacationing in Hawaii so we stayed at their condo overnight. It was actually cold because we didn't get there until 3:30 and the breeze off the water was chilly. Of course, the kids loved it anyway.
