If you've been reading this blog for any period of time, this annual beach trip will be nothing new to you. And if you are a new reader (I'm flattering myself by pretending that random people actually stumble on my blog and follow it... Humor me), you can check out my
2011 and
2012 recaps. This year, not surprisingly, was a little different from years past since we had a two-month old to deal with, but it was still a wonderful vacation (we never actually got more than our feet in the ocean, but it was totally a worthwhile sacrifice). And if we thought this year was different from previous years, I'm sure we'll be even more blown away by the differences when this crew of boys is another year older!

| From left to right: Dayton (4 months), John (4 1/2 years), Evan (14 months), and William (2 months) |
Not surprisingly, we have lots of photos, so rather than bore you with mindless jabber I'll let the pictures (and a few random entertaining captions) do the talking.
 |
| First family photo at the beach! William's shirt says "Beach Bound"--totally couldn't pass that up when I found it at a garage sale! |
 |
| Silly faces |
 |
| William's first dip in the ocean! He wasn't too impressed |
 |
| Grandmom also brought an inflatable pool so the little ones would have something to play in without having to be out in the sun. William seemed to enjoy it much more than we thought he would. |
 |
| Those eyes! Swoon. |
 |
| Just lounging by the pool. No big deal. |
 |
| John was such a good cousin. He was always excited about holding his little cousins... |
 |
| Would pat them on the back to calm them down when they got fussy... |
 |
| And even read them a few stories! (Of course, he may have done all of those things just to get people to take his picture, but whatever) |
 |
| Who would guess these two are two months apart? (You can say it, William is a chunk. We're well aware.) |
 |
| Four Generation Picture--Love it! |
 |
| How cute are the boys in their matching shirts?!? Aunt Kim is super creative and crafty! |
 |
| The siblings and their spouses |
 |
| With their kids |
 |
| Grandmom and Granddad with their boys |
 |
| The whole family! (As you can see, William was done with pictures by this point) |
The week went by way too fast and it's hard to believe we won't see this whole crew again until Christmas--it'll be shocking to see how much all the boys will have changed!
