Beach Trip



After a long week of traveling, unpacking & getting settled, we decided to take the boys to the beach today for a well-needed break. We took off fairly early this morning and drove to Atlantic City, NJ. The beaches there are pretty nice; not quite like some, but the sand is powdery & soft and it's a good family environment that prohibits alcoholic beverages etc. Jacob and Caleb absolutely loved it. They loved getting into the sand and building castles (more like destroying the castles that we built for them). They even helped Jeff dig a big hole, and then took turns standing in it & smiling for the camera. They especially loved the water. They day was a bit overcast, but it didn't keep them from playing in the water. When we finally took off, they were both exhausted and slept most of the way home. It was a fun day together as a family!

Welcome back to Philly! Where is your new place? Will you guys be in the same ward?

have you guys been to the boardwalk in Ocean City? It's very fun and family oriented - we loved taking Savannah there while we were in Philly.
