 Julia LOVED the sand.  She spent every moment that we were at the beach rolling around in the sand, eatingg it and getting as dirty as possible.

Joshua bogie boarding for the first time.  He really liked it and got quite brave by the end of the week.

I don't know if you can tell, but we are sitting in 2 sand cars that Ginny and Joshua built.

 The kids found lots of jellyfish - fortunately they didn't sting.

It had been over a year and a half since we'd seen Jeff's parents.  It was nice to be able to finally introduce Julia to them.
