Watercolor- dreaming of the beach


Nothing like updating nearly a month after we have been home from the beach!! 
We spent the 1st week of June in Watercolor Florida with my parents, Aunt CC & E, and Lynn and Karen.  How can you not have a blast with that crew!  We laughed, ate, swam, ate some more, rode bikes, shopped, ate some more, and most importantly just enjoyed life together with family.  My sweet Turner reminded me the other day that families stick together!  Indeed real family does. 

Enjoy my many pictures!!  Believe it or not, I only took my camera to the beach 2 days :)  Imagine all the pictures I'd have if I took it every day!

 Nearly every day we would treat the kids (and yes us too) to either Sno Cones or Ice cream...some times we'd even treat ourselves to a 2nd helping!
 Turner is no doubt our little beach bum!  He was super excited to be at the beach and was ready to get his feet wet
 Daddy even took a little swim

 Throw the ball to me!!!
 Ready, set, throw
 Gonna give boogie boarding a trie
 waiting so patiently for a  BIG wave
Here goes nothing!

 Enjoying the sun with Lolly
 Did I say this boy loves the beach!  Sand and all!
 Now sis was a different story
 Pops' favorite spot, in the nice cool shade enjoying the breeze from the ocean
 Mommy & Turner enjoying the water
 Happy kids = Happy mommy
 Be. Still. Oh. Heart
 After a few days, sis finally warmed up, however she'd prefer if her feet didn't get sand on them.  Notice the shoes and the boogie board!
 Is that not the cutest little booty you've ever seen
 Diggin for crabs and sea shells
 Cheese!!


 Uncle E has her heart
 The kids made friends on the beach and enjoyed a few hours of crab hunting
 Super shades for the Super Star
 Having fun with Aunt Cc
 Muscle Man

Our house this year had wrap around porches on both levels!  It was so nice to let the kids run around and enjoy the gorgeous weather
These two spent one morning with Lolly & me shopping, or should I say looking, at all the neat shops in Seaside

 They love their Lolly & Pops
 Crazy Abundantly Blessed!
The whole crazy gang
 Thanks to Lolly, Pops, Lynn & Karen- we got to have a fun date night with Aunt CC & E. 
 Livin the rough life
 Dinner at the Red Door- highlight of the dinner, seeing former OSU basketball coaches Eddie & Sean Sutton
 Turner begged to be buried alive- it was shallow, promise
 I think this is Turner's dream summer job!  As long as he lets mommy come and spend the summers with him, I'm all in!
 This year, Lydia was potty trained so we learned very quickly how to pee pee on the side of the road.
This was sis' 1st reaction to the beach :(
~Showin some love~
Waiting patiently outside our favorite Sushi restaurant. 


We are blessed to go back in August with all the Satterfield clan.  We can't wait to show them our favorite spots and make memories for a life time!

Thanks Lolly & Pops for yet another super awesome vacation!
