this is why we live in Va Beach!

Yesterday was a beautiful day. Perfect for the beach. I called up my friend Robin. Here's what our conversation was like:

{phone ringing}

Robin: Hello!
Me: What in the world are you doing?
Robin: Nothing. What are you doing?
Me: What are your plans for the day?
Robin: What are you planning on me doing today?

Seriously. This is what I have to work with?
Anyway, Ben suggested we go to the beach. It was tons of fun. The water was perfect. {I didn't get dragged in this time}

Diva? I don't think so!

Sometimes my boy can be so goofy. I am not quite sure WHERE he gets it from. He was like:

Parker: Mom, take a picture of me and my shovel like this
Me: Like this?

Parker: No, like this, Mom!
Me: Oh, okay!

Pam can correct me if I'm wrong {this may or may not be an aircraft carrier. Pretty sure it is. }

Paisley was LOVING the sand. She didn't like the water, but she just rolled around in the sand. Maybe she was showing off for Jacob?

My cutie of a husband. He's probably going to kill me once he realizes I put this picture of him on here. It's the only one I took of him, and I am sure he wants proof that he was there. {then again, he probably won't kill me!}

We then invited Robin's whole family over for dinner. Ben made chicken tacos with homemade guacamole and salsa. I wish I was a good cook...but I won't complain that he is AWESOME! It was a lot of fun--the kids played in the backyard while us adults were able to have some adult conversation! {I even convinced Ben to FINALLY get me a picnic table. It will be nice to have a place to sit outside. It just needs to be painted, now!}

What better desert than some marshmallows? Technically they aren't s'mores. Sorry bout that, kids!

  1. Looks absolutely DIVINE!!!!

    (We had snow today. And no, I'm not kidding. It was about 40 F all morning, so we stayed in while I cleaned off, around and under the oven and fridge, etc...then it snowed and hailed for an hour. The sun finally peeked out for a while, and then went down. We still have the space heater on and are wrapped up in blankets! LOL!)

  3. Oh Kate, I am so jealous of your great weather. Like Deanna said, it did snow yesterday. I am still waiting for May to get here. I think I will miss it. Hopefully it will be just a little warmer in three weeks.
