Sam got a triers certificate. Him and I were partners during the day events and had a lot of pressure to win everything... we didn't win anything so he was adament he was going to win something... at least he got bronze in beer pong.

Friends Beach Weekend

Last weekend a group of us decided to go nuts and take 5 kids to the beach for 4 days and 3 nights and stay in one house together. The oldest kid was just over 3, and the youngest had just turned one... and the only couple without a kid, was pregnant, too late for them to turn back now! Not only did we all survive, but it was a really fun weekend. We're hoping to make it a tradition. The Newport Aquarium, Lots of Beach time, S'mores, games, and good food. Now for what people care about... lots of photos.






The hurricane experience... I think the winds in there got up to 80mph








Random guy, just loved the shots I got of him before he got back in the water

Everyone dry and warm, Ella with her hot chocolate... watching Elmo's world on Josh's phone

Dan fell asleep on the couch, Ella came over and tickled his feet... he woke up, this is Lacey's reaction
