Vacation Day 4 – Let the Games begin!
Posted By pamelamyers on July 10, 2016
The morning started out a little dreary from the rain the night before, so we all relaxed for a while. Sam and Maddox started an insane game of Jenga. I NEVER saw a Jenga tower get so high. They were so good! It actually got much higher than this, but after a while, we were all afraid to go anywhere near them or the game!
We did make it to the beach for what turned out to be a beautiful day. Sam and Maddox wanted to be buried in the sand, so I was happy to oblige. Okay, see ya kids! We’re going back for lunch!
Sam, when did you become a teenager? She thought this was hysterical, of course. Mark’s idea, not mine! Yeah, just wait until she is actually a teenager, see how amusing he thinks it is!
My little beach bunny. 🙂
Sam and Maddox played well together, but they usually always do. Maddox got this game of horse shoes for his birthday from my mom and it was perfect for the beach.
For whatever reason, Sam really liked being buried. It can get dull, so Mark made it, shall we say, a bit more interesting!
That night, we all took a stroll down the Promenade so the kids could play games at the arcade. It is the perfect place for photos. We take some every year and I love them. It’s when we get the best pictures of my beautiful girl and my family that I love so much. I look back on these beach photos often, year after year, and am reminded again and again how lucky I am that I can spend this time with my family, and how lucky Sam is to have these memories.
We did eventually make it to the arcade and Sam played all her favorite games. Look at her feet off the ground!
Every year it’s the same games. She likes to stomp the spiders! I think it’s fun to see her do this year after year. It never gets dull for her.
We had to pose in our usual spots. This year, Sam wanted to be captain of the pirate ship. Grandmom and Mommy had to row!
Oh, turtle. How many years has Sam climbed on your back? Now that would be a montage, wouldn’t it? So many years of turtle pictures.
A great night, and a beautiful sky to walk home to. We love you beach!
