Beach Trip Part Deux

Well we just returned from our second beach trip of the year and it was fun for all! The trip down with the kids wasn't as bad as the trip in May. I think they are getting used to traveling long distances now. It only rained one day the entire week so that was great. The kids were great with a few melt downs but that was to be expected. My to do list from a previous post is below - lets see how I did shall we...

Hanging out with my family since we are not all together in one place a lot - CHECK
Sleeping late - uh NO - not with two kids in the condo - the latest I slept was like 8:30 - which is later than normal - but not what I had in mind - but that's ok
