We took one last vacation from Monday thru Wednesday to Ocean City, N.J. before the peeps come on Monday...The weather was gorgeous, so beautiful I wanted to stay a little longer :( We had lots of fun...highlights would be:

Kaden (5) said: "getting cotton candy for the first time, riding bike on the boardwalk,
swimming in the pool, seeing the dophins, and riding the waves"
Kaycee (3 1/2) said: "digging and making pools, going in the warm water and finding some
seashells and seeing the dolphins in the ocean"
Campbell (18 mo) said: "Playing with 2 little girls we met on the beach, Gianna and Jessica,
(who were exactly her and Kaycee's ages...which meant
playing with new beach toys), also walking on the
boardwalk at night, holding daddy's hand, and stopping to dance in front of all the
arcades"...she put on quite a show for everyone.
Mommy (30) said: "not cooking, relaxing on the beach getting a last minute tan, riding bike
with my family...we were quite a scream (tandem, tag a long, and trailer)
breakfast with Scott, Ang and Addalie...always fun talking about life with them. :),
and seeing the dolphins"...
Daddy (now 34 !) said: "riding bike on the boards, breakfast with Scott and Ang, seeing the
dolphins, and building sand castles with the kids"

Here's some pictures that captured our time away from home...

The last few hours on the beach on Wed. we saw 4-5 dolphins...they were right in front of us...up really close. The lifeguards pulled everyone out of the water. Talk on the beach, (from this fun family we met), was that there was a shark, and these dolphins came in to chase the shark out. Now Matt and I couldn't say we saw the shark, but these other people say they definately saw it, and that's why everyone had to get out of the water, and that's the only reason these dolphins came in so close. Who knows? But, it was fun excitement, and so much fun to watch Kaden and Kaycee taking in these dolphins...they starting doing jumps out of the waves, it was really cool. God is so, so good!
