This is me taking silly pictures of myself before bed last night...Mama says I'm a goof ball!

                                   

                                   

                                   

                                   

This morning we walked to The Coffee Beanery for breakfast. It was a steamy morning out there! But I was ready. And I'm ready for the 4th of July, that's for sure!

                                  

                                   





Then we packed up and headed for the beach! We can't believe it's the first time we've been to Ocean City beach this summer! We dug for sand crabs, we found tons! And we ran and jumped and splashed in the surf. The water was perfect and not too cold. It was great!



                                   





                                  

                                  

It was all hands on deck with all of us monkeys running for the ocean. Kai was fine swimming around but Finn and I made Mama nervous by the water. Finn even got smashed by a wave or two!

                                   

                                  

                                   

                                   

                                   

                                  

                                  



Then we had some snacks and some lunch under the umbrella. It sure was hot outside of the umbrella! And that sand was like molten lava. 



                                   

Then Jax crashed out! And I made a new friend named Damon. We swam and jumped the waves for hours! It was awesome! I didn't want to leave when it was time to go. I wanted to stay and play with my new friend longer!

                                  

                                   

                                  





When we got home we jumped right in the pool and hung out with Uncle Jason and Baby Ethan and all of our pool friends! 








Jax put on a show for everyone with his cannon balls! They were pretty good!

                                   

For dinner we headed to one of our favorite spots, Ropewalk! It was a beautiful night and we had fun playing and running around!
                                   

                                  

                                  

Then we had a tasty dinner and played with our wax strips to make some funny things. Mama made me glasses. They were funny!









Then we drove up to the Art Gallery to see the sun set. It was a little cloudy so we didn't get to see it set but the sky was all kinds of beautiful colors! It was a beautiful evening. Then we played a fun golf ball game with Granddaddy on the picnic table. It was fun!

                                  

                                   

                                  

This morning we hit the road at 8:30 in the morning to head to Ocean City beach! And lo and behold, we get to the McDonald's over the Bay Bridge and who do we run into? Our neighbors Mr. Murphy, Mary Murphy and Maeve! It was funny!

                                   

                                  

Then we were on our way!! We couldn't wait to get to the beach and see Grandma and Granddaddy and Uncle Jason and Aunt Mindy and Baby Ethan and Baby Maia!!



Everyone was there when we got to the house!



We quickly got our bathing suits on and hit the pool. It was a perfect pool day and we ran into all of our old friends, especially Blaze!!



                                  

                                  

                                   

                                  

                                  

We were doing so much swimming and having so much fun in the sun that I needed a little rest! And boy did I take a good nap!

                                   

And I, on the other hand, stayed in the pool all. day. long! I got to see cousin Meghan and Chad and their friends and I got to swim and jump with my friend Blaze all day long! I was in the pool so long that even Jax woke up and came back to the pool with us! Then we had to get out because it was getting late and we needed to eat some dinner! What an amazing pool day. I'll be swimming by the end of this week for sure!





                                  

                                   

                                  

                                  

                                   

Then we headed to our favorite place...Kirby's! Well, one of our favorite places. And we had fun hanging out with our cousins, playing games and having a tasty dinner! It was a great first night at the beach...



                                  



                                  

...And we got a killer sunset to boot!



                                  

This morning we all woke up and had a show, I was the ticket taker. The tickets cost $4.

                                  



Then we headed to the Tastee Diner to meet Miss Lara for breakfast. We had fun sitting at our very own kids table. We acted like we didn't even know the grown ups...

                                   



                                  



When breakfast was over we had to say goodbye to Pearl and Miss Lara. We were really sad about that. We hope it's not too long until we see each other again!  We had a really fun visit but it was way too short.

                                   

                                  

                                  

Then Mama and Daddy took all of us to our friends, The Coll's to hang out while they went to Georgetown for a surprise boat ride, birthday party for Uncle Harvey! They had a super fun time and so did we!



                                  

                                   

                                  

                                  



Later MeMa and PopPop stopped by to bring us some delicious, homemade blueberry pie!!! It was so good and we were so happy to see them. Especially since we'll be going to the beach tomorrow. It was a great Saturday!
