Going to the Beach!

We finally made it to the beach. We stayed at Quintin’s cousin camper. We had a great time. Quintin and the boys went canoeing in the river. Quintin end up doing all the work. They had a lot of fun doing it. The kids spent most of the time in the pool. Adrian loved that cousin Kevin had a bike he could ride. I think that bike saw more miles in 5 days then it had in a few years. Q borrows the neighbor’s bike so that kept the both of them busy. McKayla spent a lot of time making friends. Every time we turn around, she had new one and bring them back to the camper.

We did make it the beach on late Friday. The surf was ruff. I did not realize how hard it was going to be keeping an eye on 4 kids. LaRae did not like the water. She thought eating the sand was great. Quintin was teaching the boys how to snorkeling. McKayla played with LaRae in the water trying to get her to like it. However, McKayla’s efforts did not pay off LaRae was having it. She just cried the whole time.

Our vacation always has to have some excitement in then. McKayla got hurt the morning before we went to the beach. Q and she were playing on the teeter-totter. Q decided to get off and let it go. Well, let just say McKayla’s back was hurting bad. However, by the time we found out there must have been 6 golf carts in circle around her. She would not move or get up. So of course I was about to panic when Quintin sternly warn me if I was going to I could go back to the camper. Therefore, I kept my cool. We had Kevin’s neighbor look at her and after about 30 minutes so finally got up. She got her ride in the golf cart. They drive all over the place in golf carts instead of walking I really enjoyed walking around the campgrounds. However, if you’re not careful you might be run over by one. Oh and then the next day she could find her way back to camper from the playground. Thank goodness, they remember her from the day before.

Saturday we went to friend’s house and made it to the boardwalk. We love going on rides. Quintin and I fight over who is going on what rides with the kids. Not really, fight. However, I run faster then him.
