Evan decided, sort of last minute, that we really needed to take a trip to the beach for a number of reasons. Our world was flipped on its head with too many business trips during May, June and July and Evan's new calling as bishop of a congregation that was not our own. And we needed to remind Amelia and Dylan that they really did like each other in spite of the frequent bickering that seemed to invade much of their summer fun. Our family needed a little time to play together...
Below is proof that they like each other enough to stand and pose for mom.
Amelia was rather pleased that she was able to color coordinate her hat and water shoes with her favorite swim cover-up.
Dylan was showing us what he would look like on a surf board IF he ever decided to try one out in the actual ocean.
Of course there's always the sandy hands shot...
We were so pleased that Simon decided to wear a hat. This is the first time ever in his two years that he has allowed anything to stay on that little head for longer than .2 seconds.
He took his hat off for a little while...
And then decided that he needed it on again.
This was the best he could do.
The hotel was rather kid-friendly so we spent a great deal of time at the pool.
So far this is the closest we can get Amelia to surfing.
Same here...
There was music playing at the pool and Dylan suddenly decided to bust a move.
I don't think he realized anyone was watching him...
Hot tub and bunny ears and remembering how fun Daddy is...
Crazy hot tub hair
Two year old getting in his last digs before he collapses on a chair to nap...
A quick cracker snack and no smile...Simon was tired.
And here is the only picture from Carsland and Disneyland for that matter. We went for a day--it was hot and we wore ourselves out. I only got out the camera once, but at least this photo is proof that I was actually there...
