We started all the crazineess off at Oma and Opa's for a joint birthday party. Happy Birthday, Oma, Stephanie and Marty. None of you look any older...well, I guess you do, Stephanie. But that is a good thing at your age :)
From the party we took off for the Washington Coast. Since our road trip in January, Josie loves to sit in the back and yell out song requests while we drive. Thankfully, not all of her song choices are Raffi, now. Here she is singing to one of her favorite songs clutching one of the party balloons. . Benjamin was already asleep and she was not far behind.
Building sandcastles with Daddy
Benjamin wanted to get out and help.
In the hotel room being entertained by big sister.... often to the point of being overwhelmed. The kid (the little one) has a lot of patience.
She literally ran around like this for hours splashing in each and every tide pool. Notice Marty flying the kite in the background?
And what does one do when they have to go to the bathroom and the hotel is too far away to make it in time? Just squat and go.
And then get right back to runnung - minus the pants. They got too wet from all the tide pool splashing.
Benjamin's favorite thing - being nice and cozy next to me. He is already a Mama's boy, just like his father :)
Josie back at it the next day, this time in her swim suit. It was nice but it wasn't that warm.
When the clouds rolled in she just put on a sweatshirt and kept right on playing.
She played so hard that she took 2 hour naps each day.
Our walk from the hotel to the beach. Josie liked to lead which was no surprise.
The kite flying really was pretty amazing.
What is a trip to the beach without a visit to the candy store. Josie enjoying a way too big lolly and I enjoyed saltwater taffy. YUM.
