The last of the beach trip

Sorry if you are sick of seeing pictures from our vacation but this is it for the beach pictures.

Jack was obsessed with these guys.

Family Photos

I love family photos, but we are not at a good age for that at the moment.  It is a nightmare trying to get a picture of all 5 of us.  This year was the worst.  It test my marriage, my love for my kids, and my ability to not yell obscenities at randos who just walk right into pictures. 

This is as good as it got this year.  I did a little photo shopping, and yes, incase you notice this is the same spot we took pictures last year.   This might even have to be the Christmas card picture this year because I think Chris might strangle me if I even mention the idea of trying to get another family pic.

 

Missy’s family is at the best age.  They sat down, we took a couple pictures in a minute and that was it and they got a good family picture.

This is my favorite picture from the whole week!

Here are what most of the pictures looked like.

Yes, Chris is shooting our son in the back with a toy gun.

It was bad for everyone just watching our attempts.  Charlotte had to drink a beer to get through it.

Beach II

More from the beach. 

Jack and Teddy

The boys loved playing at the pool.

I tried desperately to get a picture of all three boys together but it was impossible.  It didn’t help that when we went out to take pics the boys got completely distracted by a golf cart, so this is the closest I got to getting all 3 together for a pic and smiling.

Beach Trip

Brace your self, I took over 700 pictures at the beach.  I have taken more in the past.  I am going to attempt to share the highlights and not all 700 but it might be hard so here is a start.

 

First day out on the beach.  This is Jack (ignore that the bucket says Teddy)

Gates loved being berried in the sand.

              

One of our favorite things about where we go (Watercolor) is that we ride bikes everywhere we go pretty much.
