Say Cheese

 We were outback playing and I was trying to get some pictures of E. I asked her to smile and say cheese and this is what she gave me.....

 So we took a break from that ...

 to play

 telling her bunny to "go go go"

 and to concentrate on her drawing

I thought I would give the smile one more try....

Success!

A visit from Aunt Cori

Cori came to visit from Savannah right after we got back from the beach. Elsa was thrilled to say the least. She was attached to Cori- taking her by the hand to play whenever she could.

We got back from an awesome week in the Outer Banks this lovely group (missing the little kids)

 Day one at the beach. E wasn't too sure about the  the waves but loved playing in the sand.

 Taking a break from the sun. E loved having lots of cousins to run around with.

 E's marker trumpet

Nap-time was well needed after being on the beach all morning

 We had three days with a really warm and calm ocean. Then we got a few days with big waves that made these great tidal pools on the shore. E loved them and were perfect for the smaller kids.

 Checking out the beach with Great Grandmommy and checking out Uncle Dave's sand creation.

                                                   Time to hang out with the big boys.

 She loves her Uncle "Coe"

 Alex got some sweet paddle boarding in. Saw lots of dolphins and big Jellyfish.

 

 E screaming at the ocean. Not sure why but it was pretty funny (video in post below)

 

 E spotted this big pile of sand and decided it would make a good slide.

Kept her occupied for quite sometime!

 

The last day there, it rained. E insisted on playing out on the deck in the rain.

We spent a nice last day hanging out with everyone.
