Beach 2009 (Take Two)

I'm going to be honest. There are about twenty pictures in this post. I would definitely consider this post one that probably only people in our family will take the time to look at! :) For those of you who are reading, though, I have tried to explain our trip through these pictures. Enjoy!

Ellie was a fish in the water this year! We had to make a special trip to get goggles and a raft. Her favorite thing to do was 'dive,' which meant putting her head under water. I was impressed!
Mary Claire was perfectly content watching all of the action from a beach chair.
And guess who joined us half-way through our trip? Grandmother!
Mom and I attempted to take the girls to the beach for a little photo session, but big surprise...they were not into it!
So not into it, in fact, that we took them back to the lobby of the condo to try again. Of course, MC loved it!
Yeah, our attempt at a family picture on the beach had about the same success as our earlier photo shoot!
But, despite only so-so pictures, we ate great food! One of the best parts of the beach is the yummy food!
The funniest part of the whole trip? After all of the pictures that we took, there wasn't a single one of just me and Robbie! So, here is our self-portrait the night we got home...pitiful!
Most importantly, have I mentioned how appreciative we are of Bob and Mary for taking us to the beach every year? They are just wonderful!

Adorable!! I kinda like that you don't have the perfectly posed kids. I feel better about mine anyway, ha ha!! It just adds to the memory though! Glad you had a good time! Thanks for sharing with all of us!
