. . . and his page starts suddenly blowing up with confused, frustrated rants about car keys and black holes – don’t worry. It’s just that we are having a **slight** difference of opinion on our departure time. He says this morning, I say it would be lovely for Micah to take his first steps on sand, so we should stay indefinitely.
And now, a little ditty . . .
Come On In!
The Water’s Fine
I’ll Give You
Until I Count To Nine
If You’re Not
In By Then
Guess I’ll Have To
Count To Ten!!!
It’s not exactly a benediction, but I do have a wish for your weekend: May you laugh until happy tears are streaming down your cheek. And then, laugh some more!
Childhood is a magic castle of sand on a shore.
One moment, it’s here; the next no more.

Looks like you guys have had a GREAT beach vacation!
We did, Wendy! September by the beach is the BEST!! The crowds are gone and the water’s warm. Wahoo!
Love the pictures! Glad you and the family could get away and enjoy a beach vacation!!! And I think you should definitely stay until Micah takes his first steps on the warm sand
Ahhh, I knew you would agree, Alexis!
Love this! I am super excited because we are going to the atlantic coast in ONE WEEK! Hoping the hurricanes stay away so we can have a lovely beach vacation!
Yes, stay away hurricanes! Have fun, Brittany!
i could never figure out why my parents had periods of not speaking to each other whenever we were on vacation — now i’m the adult and i understand perfectly well.
<3 the pics, thanks for sharing. If you don't mind me asking, what camera do you use? I am looking to get a new one. Thanks! Michelle
I don’t mind at all! It’s a Canon Rebel XSI with an upgraded lens (250 mm) – not professional quality but it gets the job done. Definitely one of my fave gifts from Daddypotamus ever!
LOL! He has graciously agreed to stay till noon but put his foot down about the whole waiting for Micah to walk thing. A girl can dream though, can’t she?
great pictures! what a lovely family!
Thanks Emily. Wish i could have captured the crystal clear water to show you guys. . . Best I have ever seen stateside!
ok, don’t think me a creeper, but Daniel looks GREAT!! SO jealous you got to go to the beach :]
Mae´s last [type] ..Our Weekend in Pictures: Fall is Here…Almost
I am not hip enough to know what a creeper is but thanks Mae! I think he looks great too
Thanks! This was almost a good as being there! And I’m with your husband. Why would you want to go home?
I wouldn’t!!! Personally, I think we should follow the europeans and think of vacation in terms of months, not weeks.
The picture of Katie with “Linchpin” is priceless. I love it! Your blog always makes me smile
I love that you noticed the title, Angela! I was wondering if someone would. Great book!
This collection of pictures looks like the makings of a Pulitzer Prize. Maybe I’m a little prejudiced.
I have to ask- where did y’all go (or did you already mention it and I missed it….)? Looks beautiful! I’ve been waiting to get back to the beach for a few years now but I’m wanting to find a carribean-esque beach in the states…. Traveling out of the country with 3 littles doesn’t thrill me
We went to Destin and I LOVED it! I’m a carribean girl, too, but stateside trips are definitely easier with little ones.
