Beach Fun

This year we continued our newly begun Leddy/Worley Beach Trip!  Last year, they went without me since I was too large to want to travel.  But this year Macie and I were in!  We stayed with Mom and Dad and had a great week.  It is our last big hurrah before the girls go back to school so we live it up.  The girls and I got there to celebrate a belated birthday for Belinda!

The next day brought a real treat: Mom kept Macie so the us big girls spent the afternoon at the beach! Macie does like the beach, but she doesn't last too long and that cuts into the lengths of our visits. Morgan and Emma Kate had a ball playing in the waves while Belinda and I watched. So much fun!

Packe is a super hair brusher... it was always his job with us! 
On Friday we had a full day of a new kind of fun. We did a bit of shopping and then took the girls to the Track where we had a (HOT) time filled with games, bumper boats and go-karts! It was a blast! When it was time to ride the go-karts Morgan rode with Belinda and Emma Kate rode with me. This proved to be a great choice since Morgan said, "Go faster Bubba!" while Emma Kate told me, "I'm not so sure about this." Their drivers fit their needs well. Haha! Then that night Mom and Dad took us to the water park. We had never been before, but Dad's work hosted a family night so it was the perfect opportunity to go. It was great! We played in the kids area and all floated on the lazy river. And then Dad, Morgan and I decided to go down a big slide together. I thought we were going to fall off! But Morgan loved it!! It was a great, but exhausting, day.

Our last full day Mom and Grandma left for their trip to Key West, so Dad took the rest of us girls to the beach.  Morgan quickly talked Packe into digging a hole and the fun began!  We spent the rest of the day playing while Belinda got Macie and Emma Kate to take a nap under the tent!  She has skills.

We also made a stop at the beach that night to see the super moon.  And boy was it super!  Big and bright!  And it was really cool to see it rise over the ocean.
