August 2007 Trip to Gran's and the Delaware Shore

Every August we join my family and my uncle's family at Bethany Beach. It is the one of our favorite times of the year. Here are some highlights of the trip.

Ash at the pizza parlor enjoying using a straw.

Simple things bring the greatest joy. I think drinking from a straw was her favorite part of the boardwalk experience.

This was Ash's very first kiddie ride. She begged to get on with the older kids and loved it.

Ash got her first rides at the kiddie center at the Rehobath boardwalk. She loved the train!

Alex riding the airplane.

Amber loved any ride she got on. Look at that smile!


Alex and Mama got to ride on one of the rides for bigger kids - the helicopter!

Ash in the beach house relaxing.

Ash loved getting all sandy but didn't enjoy washing the sand off in the shower...

Alex really enjoyed the waves and sand this year. He did have a close call in the waves that through me for a loop, but luckily Papa and some angles saved him from the sea!

One of the greatest highlights of the beach is spending time with Austin and Julia. What great cousins!
