Riley wanted to help me with the descriptions below the pictures, so of course, Reagan chimed in too. Here are their comments on this one: Riley says, "Aren't we cute? Isn't Reagan so silly?"
Reagan says, "Cut it and put it in my book. I have lots of books and pictures in my room."
We had a ton of fun at the beach. We spent the first night and day by ourselves. I believe that is the first time I have stayed in a condo (or hotel) by myself with the kids. It went very smoothly. I prepped both of the kids prior to arriving that they would have to help unload the car and stay with me at all times. They were excellent. Riley was a huge helper. He even unloaded the cooler into the fridge. We visited the pool and the beach that afternoon. Rod and Sue, Jason and Traci and the kids arrived the next day. We spent the next 4 days on the beach and at the pool. Everyone enjoyed climbing all over the grandparents and Uncle Jason. Jason got his share of exercise throwing R and J in the pool. We got to have dinner with Brad (D's high school buddy) and Beth and their 2 boys on Wednesday night. It was so great to see them and to meet their newborn, Ben. They just happened to be vacationing at the same time just 6 miles down the beach. On Friday, Jason took Riley and Jarren to an aviation museum and Traci and I took Kacey and Reagan to the outlet mall. Then that night while Traci and I were preparing supper, I went back and forth from our condo to theirs and thought nothing of leaving the door unlocked (we were right next to each other on our own little hall way). BIG MISTAKE! Someone came into our condo and stole my purse from the counter! I was very upset, but not devastated. It could have been so much worse as we have all seen on the news!!! He hit 3 floors and they have a good idea who it was, but no one holds any hope that my purse will be recovered. I only had $45 in it. I wish he had only taken the cash and left the rest. I immediately cancelled everything and he hadn't tried to use anything yet.
Rod and Sue left on Friday and J and T left on Saturday. My mom and Holly and her family arrived Saturday afternoon. We again spent most of our time on the beach and in the pool. On Monday we went deep sea fishing and OH THE FUN! I will let the pictures tell the story!
Biggest catch of the day made by Uncle Chad!
(Chad is on the left - the guy on the right was the deck hand)
Reagan fell asleep before the first catch!
Riley is one PROUD FISHERMAN! "I love deep sea fishing. It's cool and fun!"
It was raining the night we took the family photos with my family, but they turned out pretty well considering!

LOVE the pictures. They do speak for themselves. I hate that about your purse. Glad to hear you all had a great time. Can't wait to hear ALL about it! Sorry about the fireworks.
Great catch Riley!!!!
Everyone looks like they had a great time. The beach picture is beautiful. I can't wait to hear all about deep sea fishing from the kids. I'm sure they have lots of interesting stories :o)
