One last trek

We made our last trek to the beach as a foursome this past weekend. We were not all that thrilled to come back home, but we move next week - made it a little easier to bear!

Trouble and Royalty

Lil with Reid and his friend Anderson at the pool - if those 2 aren't trouble, I don't know what is.


Reid took a nap this afternoon so they got to watch a movie before bed (since we knew he'd be up till 10 anyway). Lil chose Sleeping Beauty and convinced Reid he would like it since there was a boy in it. Twenty minutes into the movie, the king came out in his pajama shorts, a polo, cowboy boots, and a horse. Sleeping Beauty wasn't far behind. (The background will - fortunately - be very different soon. We move into our new house in 2 weeks!)

The Tooth Fairy is on her way (but she doesn't know the going rate these days).

Lil lost her first tooth today. It's been loose for a while, and sister was in nobody's hurry to pull that thing out. Needless to say, she is already anxiously awaiting the arrival of the tooth fairy this evening.

Mermaid and Mer-Man

Susu got some pictures of my little mermaid and mer-man while we were there this weekend.

Fourth of July

We spent the weekend of the 4th at the beach with Susu and Ga. Lil and Reid made brownies, had 2 nights of fireworks, swam in the pool, played all sorts of games, and just generally wore themselves (and their grandparents, too, I'm sure) out. Thanks again, Susu and Ga!

Susu and Ga took them to a barbecue and to see fireworks on Thursday night. Trey and I didn't know what to do with ourselves (and all that quiet), but we certainly enjoyed the break!


Susu and Trey took them to see the parade - always a big hit since they come home with a LOT of candy!

We watched the Wrightsville Beach fireworks from Susu and Ga's house on the 4th.


Some of us were clearly more patriotic than others.

Lots and lots of swimming...




A few bubbles turned them into "polar bears" in short order once they turned the jets on in Susu and Ga's tub.
