dewey beach

Last month we spent a week at the beach with our good friends Peter and Sarah and their kids. We stayed in a little beach house that was about a 2 minute walk to the beach. Everyday we would get up eat breakfast and head to the beach. We had so much fun!! Here are a few of the highlights in pictures.

The sunrise the first day we were there.



Our first time on the Boardwalk. There were so many cute little shops and lots of yummy food. French fries, carmel popcorn, and soft serve ice cream cones which ended up being our favorite. I think we went back 3 or 4 times while we were there for ice cream!! The benches were really cool because you could move the top back and forth if you wanted to look at the beach or watch the people on the boardwalk. There were some very interesting people to watch!

Every day the boys would build a sandcastle, but they weren't just orindary sandcastles. They had tunnels through them that you could roll a golf ball through. It was fun to see what the little boys would imagine and watch the big boys make it. They came up with some pretty amazing sandcastles.






This last one turned out to be Jeff's favorite. One guy stopped on his way walking past and said it was the best sandcastle on the beach!!

Jeff and Cameron relaxing after a hard days work.

The last day I was sitting on the sand and they decided to build the castle around me. They built the sand around me so I had a chair and then did tunnels that went around and underneath me. I had sand everywhere on me by the time they were finished but the little boys thought it was great fun!!


We were able to take Sadie with us and she had such a great time too!


Peter had a balloon rocket launcher that he would shoot balloons in the air and the kids would chase them. Sadie decided to join in on the fun, which is weird because she never chases anything outside. She wore herself out pretty quick!
This is our new favorite picture of Sadie.

Tiffany and Laney at the beach. We were watching Sadie run around and wear herself out and Jeff took this picture.

Going to the beach!
We didn't want to leave! It was a much needed vacation and great to get away from everything! Good friends, Good food, Good scenery, Good times, Great FUN!
Come visit and we'll take you there!
