Summer Vacation (Beach 2)

The first time Josiah walked on the beach. He loved it.

The older kids loved the first night at the beach also.

Josiah was a little scared of the waves and did not like the water racing up to him.

Grandpa was having a great time with the kids. He brought them to the rides, and actually joined them in all of them. The kids had a great time, although the viking ship was rather scary for Caleb.

Grandpa Gordon took the center wheel and had the kids flying. As far as I could tell they were loving it. Thank goodness for a year of training at Dutch Wonderland.

As you can see the kids were kind of apprehensive about the viking ride.

After the viking ship ride, it was decided they would like a ride that was a little more mundane. So the merry-go-round was chosen. Caleb chose the mean dragon, while Kaylie was able to find a pretty horse.

In the morning we were all able to ride on a surry.

Once on the beach, a small pool was built for Josiah. He loved the protection from the racing waves and also the water and sand.

Josiah loved the mask.

The rides were again a hit for the kids.

Sometimes you just can't take a good picture.??

Sometimes you can, you just need the right people.

Always good to have a good night sleep, after a long days work.

Caleb loves his sleeping hat from Grandma Nancy.

Of course you always have to go to the pool. Nice to have after a long day at the beach.
