Jellyfish encounters!

We arrived here on Saturday and straight away headed to the beach. Everyone entering the ocean got an unpleasant surprise as they got "touched" by a jellyfish. Some got it worse than others, but needless to say, not a one enjoyed it! Here is one Andrew, Jake, and Justice retrieved when they went to the beach to build this huge sand castle.

OBX - on vacation!!!

After a week in Utah passing time with Justice and Benjamin, while Faith and Jacob went to EFY, the family reunited to fly across the country to vacation with Mike's family at this beautiful beach house in Outerbanks, North Carolina.

My Dogs!

Okay, so maybe these are my brother Tom's dogs - Charra and Asa, but they are my dogs forever in my heart! Charra used to be mine, but Mike and I weren't quite ready for that addition when the merge happened. To get her back at this point would require a custody battle - I guess I am just more hopeful that Tom will move back over to the East Valley from the West Valley. Then I can dogsit when he leaves town on business! I can wish can't I?!
