Summer Vacation, Mama Catches a Big One!

Hi everyone and happy Wednesday!
We're still vacationing at the beach... HOORAY!
Today we spent the morning fishing with Boompa and Gigi.

If you remember we fished on Monday and I caught NOTHING.
Except a pity fish that my Dad let me reel in for him.
Luckily enough for me I was able to sweet talk Andy into a giving me a lesson.

Because in all honesty, I don't like to do things I'm not good at.
The result you ask?
I kicked tail at fishing!
Oh yes I did catch AT LEAST 7 or 8 fish!!!
Here's a pic of my fishy friend cheesing for the camera.

Joseph also caught his share of fish.
He actually caught our largest fish... CONGRATS SON!

After our fishing trip the boys rewarded me with a trip to Target! ;>
I bought a super cute knit dress that is so comfy.
James shows off his bargain... a Tech Deck and ramp for $4.98!

Once we had our baths and our bellies were full it was time for a rest.

To top off our day we spent the afternoon swimming.

Fun times, fun times!
Until tomorrow...
God's blessings,
Sarah :D

Summer Vacation, My Beach Boys

Hi everyone!
Today we enjoyed a day in the sun.
We started out the morning with a walk on the beach.

I plan to frame this pic of my beach boys.
I needed a print of the beach for my bedroom redesign.
I just couldn't resist having the boys in it too!

Joseph enjoyed catching muscles and watching them dig their way back into the sand.

And James? Well, he just enjoyed being James!


After finding shells and playing in the ocean, it was time to head back.


The boys cooled off in the pool.




Mama cooled off while reading Real Simple magazine.
Ah, the good life! ;>


Later this afternoon we rode bikes and stopped off for ice-cream again.
Once we had a good sugar rush going we were back to bikin'!
Until... until James, aka Tear It Up Hinson, lost a bolt... and a fender.
No worries, Joseph and Daddy would come to the rescue soon!

So what's a kid to do until help arrives?
Target practice of course!

Look at these cute faces waiting for help!

Oh wait, here's our rescue squad now...

Within a few minutes they had us on the road again.


Tomorrow we're suppose to go fishing, again.
Until then...
God's blessings!
Sarah :D
