Last beach sunrise for a little while... 

                           

And just like that, it's time for another back to school! Everyone woke up with no problem and ready to get ready for a fun half day first day of school!

                             

Everyone was silly and giggly for day one...let's hope this momentum continues!

   

   

All looking handsome and ready for 8th, 6th and 4th grades at St. Bernadette School!

                         

                            

                             

                            

                             

                           

And as much as we complain about going back to school, we were all really happy to see all of our friends!

                               

And meet our new and some old teachers!

                              

And get the gang back together! It was fun to see how everyone grew over the summer!

   

   

   

And get right back into our old groove!

                            

   

                            

                            

   

   

The 8th grade class! The leaders of the school this year and our last year at St. B's all together!

   

   

And of course many words from Monsignor Tommy Bahama Smith!

                           

                           

Well, it was only a half day but it was kind of exhausting...

   

                             

                                

                                    

And we all are still all smiles! Must not have been that bad!

                           

And Mama was so happy to see us all. She missed us almost as much as we missed her!

                             

                              

Then we went to MeMa and PopPop's house for a visit! We feel like we haven't seen them in way too long!

                                

                               

                                

                               

                                 

Then it was off to find cleats for me and a backpack for Finn! The trip and the day were a success!

   

                                  

                              

 This morning was so foggy that we couldn't even see the water from our porch! It was kind of eerie but kind of cool!

                               

                                

Our friends, the Coll's left the beach and then we had a fun visit from our friends the Schultz's stopped by to see our house and say hi! And then we went with Daddy and Jason to have some crabs at Blu Crab house...we got the jumbos and they were HUGE!

                                 

                                  

I mean, this crab is as big as my head!!! 

                               

                                  

We also got fries and wings and shrimp!

                             

This was the first time we've tried this place and other than the morons that live across the canal with their stupid culty trump flags, this is a nice atmosphere and a fun place!

   

   

They even had an arcade upstairs that we had all to ourselves!

                                   

                                 

And all won mustaches...

                                   

It was a fun afternoon! We'll definitely come back again!

                               

When we got back from crabs our street was all but abandoned!! It was so weird to see all of the cars gone from our side of the street. It was like a ghost town!

                              

But it was the perfect weather to head to the beach for an evening swim! And even Daddy joined us!

   

   

   

                                  

   

The water was perfect and then the sky put on another brilliant show for us! The colors just kept getting prettier and prettier! Nothing better than a beach sunset!

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

After we finished our evening beach trip and dried off we decided that we needed one more Lombardi's night before heading home to reality!

   

We did some Mad Libs while we waited for our food.

                           

And had another amazing meal at one of our favorite spots!
