While Mikayla was home, we took the ferry across to a nearby island to spend a couple days at the beach. My sister and her family were able to come with us, so that made it even more special, especially since it's the same beach resort that our family has been going to since my sister and I were just kids; now we are bringing our kids!
My happy place...
There were some other friends there at the same time, so we got together for some rugby on the beach.
One of our favorite things to do at the beach is to walk waaaay down to the far end to eat at a great little Italian restaurant. In the pic below, the restaurant is located on the beach at the far right of the picture...so we definitely work up an appetite!
There are parts of the walk that require some good climbing skills...
or a willingness to just get wet.
One night at the restaurant, my sister and Zach had a left-handed arm wrestling match. My sister is left handed and crazy strong, so she gave Zach a run for his money...but he saved his honor in the end. :)
These 3 had fun just enjoying being together again.
It was also fun to get some pictures in some of the same places where we got them when the kids were tiny. We didn't have the original at the time so couldn't exactly recreate it, but it's the same kids in the same little hut...
We made some precious memories at the beach and are so thankful for His abundant blessing in our lives.
