A Bitchin' Time at the Beach

Oh how I so love my yearly week at the beach. Everyone should take 1 week off each year and rejuvenate. My family spends all year in anticipation of this week. And some strange members are always ready to go by the end of the week, while those of us who are sane begrudge returning to the real world of work, bills and assorted stressors. Luckily Elliott hasn't hit the age where he whines about going home. It's hard enough to console myself.

My little man really enjoyed the beach again this year. Each year he does a little better about how long he will stay out before heading back to the condo. It helped to have the extra help of the grown up boys this year. Frisbee, soccer, football, volleyball, boogie boarding and water gun fights were undertaken. As were some shots at night by those over 21.

Surprisingly enough, 8 people in one townhouse was not too overwhelming. Everyone was very conscious of the situation and behaved accordingly.

Sigh, only 300+ more days until next year...
