This year, however, they were separate, consecutive weeks - so instead of choosing one or the other - we went BOTH! The first weekend, it was just us 5 and the dog.
It rained the ENTIRE. TIME.
Thankfully, our boys are NOT made of sugar...so we all survived. :) Our arrival was cloudy and cool, but there was no way we weren't gonna go to the beach! After about 10-minutes, it began to POUR...I don't think the boys noticed, though...

| Look at that little man running for the sand!!!! |
The boys got lots and lots (and more lots) of puddle-jumping for the weekend, and sometimes Dad even joined in!

| Bike-riding required goggles...you know, just in case |
After a wonderful, if soggy, weekend, we came home and prepared for Fathers Day! Our little family has gone ever year since we were married. It's such a great time! Every year, my siblings keep saying they wish they'd thought to join us - and this year, most of them did! So, our little five-member family was joined by Aunts, Uncles, and cousins to join! We totaled 13 in all for Fathers Day staying, and my parents came out for Saturday afternoon!
We had our boy(s), and my sister's boys in our camper at night - at 6 months and 19 months, my brother's kiddos are just a bit too little to spend the night...
*phew*

| Camping is TOUGH WORK! |
It was such a wonderful time! So much so, my Dad has determined that the ENTIRE family should start going every year now. *grin*
This is old news for our boy(s), but the rest will be thrilled, I'm sure!
We have lots planned for this summer - I hope I remember to take pictures of the rest!!!!
Sounds like such fun, you really do "family" in a great way, thee are memories that your boys will keep for a lifetime. Keep up the good work. Aunt Kay
