I like to rate how awesome a summer is by the number of hours I’ve been able to spend at the beach. So far, this summer is off to a great start. We’ve taken several day trips to New Smyrna, a day trip to Clearwater & a longer stay at Englewood beach. Lincoln has been loving the time spent playing in the sand, and I am always convinced that life is happier at the beach!

Last month was our trip to Englewood. Caimbrin, Cora, Tyler & Laura came with us, and we had so much fun. Cora enjoyed her first vacation! Tyler & Laura were a huge help with the kids and helped us moms get a little more relaxation time in than we would have had on our own!

I loved taking Lincoln to my grandma’s condo. I’ve gone there just about every summer of my life! My brothers & I learned how to swim in this pool and spent lots of hours beating each other with pool noodles here. So many great memories.
