We were at the beach last week with my family and had a great time. The trip down there was a little on the crazy side...we had my mom, my sister (Sarah), my brother (John), Truett, Jay and myself PLUS the luggage for all of us AND my dad's suitcase all piled in the Expedition!!! hahahah! Of course, we all laughed at one point because Sarah was in the back listening to her iPod, Mom, Truett and I were in the middle seat watching a movie on the DVD player and John was in the front seat watching a movie on the laptop...talk about 'roughing it'! :)
We got there at 11:00 Thursday night and Truett had just fallen asleep. Needless to say, when we got him out of the car, he was wide-eyed and bushy-tailed ready to check everything out. He didn't fall back asleep until 12:30 am! Of course, he was up at 6:30 am, so by the time we loaded everything up (snacks, drinks, beach toys, towels, chairs, sunscreen, etc...) and got out to the beach, he lasted about 20 minutes and was ready for a nap! He and Jay went in and Truett slept until 5:00!!!
We started fresh the next day and spent the entire time on the beach. Jay and John caught crabs, Sarah laid out, Truett played in the water and the sand while Mom and I sat under the canopy, out of the sun. It was great to be able to relax, even in the SCORCHING HEAT! My brother got a taste of what it's like to NOT be the youngest because Truett followed him around THE ENTIRE TIME! The only person he wanted to sit by, eat with, play with, sleep next to, etc... was John. John started to get aggravated with his little shadow, but Truett was very persistent. :) The rest of the trip was great...we played, hung out, ATE and visited with friends and family. It was a great way to spend our summer vacation.
