First family trip

The last 2 weekends we went and stayed with AnnMarie at her place at the Jersey Shore. It was so nice to get away as a family and we even get to bring the dogs with us.

Jana just loves the pool, actually all 4 of the kids love the pool. We took Jana to the beach this past weekend and at first she wasn't sure what to make of the sand. She wouldn't put her feet down on it. After we were there for about an hour cousin Rachel picked Jana up and sat her in the sand and she didn't complain. Rachel played for the next while with Jana in the sand and she really seemed to enjoy it.
The boys played almost the entire day in the ocean and Karley built sand castles and just had fun in the sand. We had two great extended weekends. We all enjoyed walks around the campgrounds, the lake, the pools, game room, bonfires with roasting marshmallows and s'mores. Of course the favorite for the boys is the boardwalk and the rides which they got to do twice. Jana's 1st ride was the merry go round but she wouldn't sit on the horse, Karley got her brother's to ride the toddles rides with her and Julian did the roller coasters with Dad.
All in all we were blessed with beautiful weather, good times and lots of good company. Not bad for last minute planning. Now we will focus on getting ready for school to start and soccer season.
