Last week of Summer & First Day of School!

This last month has just flown by! We have had a great and crazy summer. This last week we ended off the summer with a trip to a beach house with my whole family. We had an amazing time! I can't think of a better way to end the summer then 7 days on the beach........

This is the view from the backyard

These were the stairs we climbed multiple times a day with all of our beach gear!
My parents who we owe a big thanks for making this trip happen!

Ellie and the girls were boogie board queens!

Nicolas has no fear of the ocean. He was out as far as the girls riding the big waves on his boogie board. Each day he got a little braver and would go out a little farther. He is amazing for a 3 1/2 year old!
He thought surfing with his dad was the coolest thing. He wanted to do it everyday!

This is what happens after spending 7 days at the beach!
