Day 3 Emerald Isle

Another day of vacation sadly gone. Started off with another walk/run this morning. Returned and headed to the beach with everyone. Poor Cobe- he has a bad rash/rubbed place on his legs that is causing him a lot pain, so he wasn't able to enjoy the beach very much today because it stung so badly. He and Michele headed back in and the rest of us stayed until lunch time. Cobe and I went shopping after lunch while Sadie napped and Brooks swam/played with his cousins. Then we came home and Ryan swam with the boys playing crazy pool games. Like.... let's ride Gracyn's little car into the pool with a kid on it. The boys had a riot but it appeared to be a game where it was inevitable someone would get hurt. Luckily, no one did.

Dinner was take-out from Jordan's- yummy seafood. I had shrimp, oysters and crab cake. Delicious!!! Seafood is my favorite food! Chad took the boys to the beach after dinner and they had a couple hours of baseball on the beach. Kyle and Jim are fishing, and the rest of us are just chilling. Now I am looking forward to watching the season premiere of the Hills tonight- you out there Em????? I am sure tomorrow will be more beach time- hopefully my brother Brent will be joining us tomorrow for the rest of the week. Here are some pictures from today:



Here is a picture of the indoor entertainment. Sadie took at least 4 baths today in the "hot tub." She and Braelyn took one last night, she took a few today by herself, one with these 2 boys and one next door with Josh, Braelyn and Selah. It is a huge whirlpool/jacuzzi in the master bedroom.
Here is the whole crew out on the beach this morning minus my mom- she was on a walk, and me of course since I was taking the picture. There are 22 of us here now- one more tomorrow when Brent comes.

Mary Jo and Jim with 3 of their granddaughters.

Jim with his girls.

Cobe trying to let the salt water heal his rash. Didn't work- he was pretty much miserable on the beach. He has been keeping it dry as much as possible now and putting medicine on it. Hopefully it heals soon so he can enjoy the rest of his vacation.

Baywatch anyone?

Sadie enjoyed the water today more than she has- she kept running and jumping in.

My three angels.
