First Beach Trip

I realize that this post has a ton of pictures, but you only have your first trip to the beach once... :)


Above: Elijah in his "Eli" beach hat from Paula...so cute!


Above: Family pic at the beach


Above: Mom, Dad, and the little man


Above: Nana, Papa, and Eli


Above: You can see that Elijah is totally into this


Above: Elijah's very first dip in the ocean





Above: Here comes the water


Above: Not quite sure what to think...just kind of hanging out





Above: This is one of my favorites :)


Above: Stomping around in the water


Above: "Whoa, my foot is sinking!"


Above: Great picture of my Mom and Dad


Above: Posing for more pictures...by the look on Eli's face, it seems he is thinking very hard about something


Above: Elijah is now sporting the sailor look with his hat flipped up


Above: Still not sure what to think about that "squishy floor"


Above: Nana holding Elijah tight


Above: One of Elijah's new favorite things to do is to jump up and down, with our help of course. Here he was bouncing up and down with Nana on the beach.


Above: Daddy and Eli


Above: The boys...


Above: What a great dad


Above: Mommy and Eli..."Seriously Mom, don't we have enough pictures already?"


Above: : "Taking pictures is not very fun..."


Above: "Nana on the other hand is always the entertainer!" Once again, my mom was trying to get the little guy to smile for the camera and here we have a little success.


Above: Beach fun...Ethan and my dad playing horseshoes


Above: It was a close match. My dad won the first game, Ethan won the second, and it was neck and neck for the championship of the world (otherwise known as the third game). In the end, Ethan won and good times were had by all.
