Well, not entirely. We did enjoy the beach almost every day, but daily showers allowed us either the morning or afternoon in. For me, it was a great amount of beach.
Our house for the week. Great views, housed all of us, and incidentally was right across from a bar which provided a nightly soundtrack.
COLORING TIME!! Also, the only picture we captured with all six grandchildren. Slackers!
Sisters fighting for the title: twITCHer Champion at the Cape Fear Museum in Downtown Wilmington. It turned out to be a draw.
I think the sign says it all.
Enjoying the Michael Jordan lobby - wooden planks and his college journals.
Another rain shower, another craft. Thanks to Opa for extra-large paper and foam stickers. Always a hit.
Ah, here we are: the waves!
Since we were playing on the beach at night this particular evening, the Bomgaars brought glow stick glam.
Finally Uncle Neil and Aunt Rebecca's dog Willow came along, and evening walks were a part of the rhythm to our day. Though attendance on said walks varied, here you can see a pretty good representation of the whole family (once again, as close to a group shot as we got this year. Ridiculous!).
Yes, another beach picture! Leif loved the beach! He was fearless immediately, unlike his sister's first beach experience, eating the sand and chasing the waves.
Across the street from our house, was a great little playground for all the kids to enjoy.
Luke and Leif raiding the recycling bin. All this playing makes one thirsty!
Aunt Rebecca made ice cream sandwiches for dessert one night.
A huge hit for children and adults alike.
Another night, another walk! Or maybe the same night, different picture.
Murder Mystery, year 3. Trust us, we didn't do it.
We were sad that it was over so early in the summer. Though Naomi asked about the beach since March, perhaps a July trip in 2014 would be better. June comes and goes too quickly.
