Emilie has been visiting my folks for the summer, so instead of being five to one, our numbers decreased to 4:1 for a while. It was a glorious renunion with her when we arrived bleary eyed (after a 20 hour drive) in Las Vegas two weeks ago. Since then we have hiked, sunbathed, shot guns, and shopped. Met up with old friends, ridden a Ferris wheel, and taken countless walks.
We drove to Newport Beach, CA for our traditional week at the beach with my parents. We ate ice cream, smelled stinky fish, climbed on rocks, and jumped off the lifeguard stand. We built sandcastles, wore gallons of sunscreen, still got a little burnt, and took a million pictures.
Back at the Old Sneddon Place, we jumped on the trampoline, played horse shoes, hot tubbed, and roasted marshmallows.
We had a wonderful time! We made tons of new memories, and it has been the perfect end to our summer vacation. Now, we are packed into our van, headed back home to Texas. We'll get there sometime tomorrow, then we'll jump right into back to school preparations.
Life never seems to slow down for long, but I don't think I'd want it any other way.
Happy summer!!!
