The Beach in December

Anytime we can go to the beach we are excited! I don't care if it's cold or hot-and actually cooler weather is great because there are no crowds! John took a day off and we headed down with his parents the Friday before the Christmas weekend. The kids were so excited because they were going to get to sleep in the same room together:). The weather wasn't too cold and Emily and the kids even got in the ocean a little. Avery enjoyed cleaning out the closet on the balcony. She took everything out and was so content placing it down on the balcony.

Still cleaning...

Playing at Lulu's!

Yes, both my kids have on their underwear and no shorts-you can talk to their Grammy about that.

Jimmy and Alex tried to fly a kite. It was windy but it just wasn't staying up!:(

Alex was playing Grammy's phone and visiting in the bathroom as she was getting ready. He is too funny!

The Go-Carts were open so we hung out there one morning. The kids loved riding and all of us racing each other. And they also got to ride the other rides at the track.

Ready for her go-cart ride.

These fish are the prize she got with her tickets.

At Lousiana Lagniappe. YUM!

Papa is an early bird and so are my kids (especially when they sleep together and wake each other up) so it was wonderful when he would take them out for morning excursions. They went to Krispy Kreme, Tacky Jacks and the store with the shark and octopus. They had so much fun and we got sleep in! Thanks Papa!

They were so sweet! You could hear her say, "Alex!" When she was yelling whispering each night. They loved waking up together and playing or watching tv in their room.
