Vacation; day one

We traveled over to the west coast this weekend to visit with my cousin Scott, his wife Lisa and their beautiful daughter Julia. They had their nephews Brenden, who loved getting his picture taken and Levi who was great with the kids. As I was strapping Jordan into th car seat she said "That Levi is a nice boy!" and she was right he was a real charmer! He had his hands full trying to hold onto Akiva for a picture! That boy will not stay put for a second.
Akiva got to check out someone his own size but was not sure of what to do with her.
I tried to get a picture of "the girls", they are all so cute.
All the kids had a great time playing with each other.
We played on the beach where I decided that Scott has cloned himself, Julia is his "mini me!"
The kids had a blast looking for shells and digging in the sand.
Believe it or not the gulf was too warm and swimming was not as refreshing as it should have been. Last year when we were there the water was chilly and the waves were huge.
We ate terrific meals by the pool, thank goodness for the BBQ! and had a wonderful wonderful time invading our cousins vacation. Lisa is such a great mom and Julia is an absolutely beautiful baby! It is great to see my "little" cousin Scott so happy with such a beautiful family. I'm glad we had the chance to spend time with them and hope we can do it again next year!
Thanks Scott, Lisa and Julia!
