Beach 2016!

We had an amazing beach trip this year!  We went to Holden Beach again and we absolutely loved the house!  The weather was perfect this year.  Every day we had great weather with lots of sunshine. All of the kids loved the water, especially Josh!  I couldn't get him out of the ocean!  Sam could not come this year because of work, so we missed him terribly!  He is the one who usually stays out in the ocean so I was tired by the end of the week getting knocked down by waves with Josh!  We also celebrated Josh's actual birthday at the beach!  We had another Star Wars theme party, complete with decorations!  Vera, Tom, Uncle Harold, and Aunt Doris also joined us for the party!  What a fun and amazing week!!

We made it!!

So happy and excited!
