Beach day 1

Ok so we FINALLY made it to our vacation!! We left yesterday afternoon and came to the beach and got settled at our beach condo at New Symerna Beach. It is beautiful here. It definitely took our mind off of our house. Yes our house is still flooded down stairs. The entire living room and part of the dining room. However, it did not go into the office, bathroom, kitchen, or laundry room. It could have been much worse. We will think about what we are going to do after vacation. For now, we are thoroughly enjoying our family time and building memories together. Today it was bright and sunny. Really bright actually. The sun was glistening off of the sand beautifully. The waves were really rough though because of the left over storm. The kids had a ball digging in the dirt and finding sea shells. My dad and Scott (my sister's husband) flew a kite together because it was really windy. The boys thought that was really neat! My sister's belly is growing. She looks so cute in her bathing suit and "the boy" as Reece calls him, just hanging out in the sun. Around 1pm we came in and ate lunch and took great long naps. Everyone fell asleep. Reece woke up with a 103.3 degree fever. He has an ear infection again so Jenny and Scott had to take him to an emergency room to get antibiotics because no doctor's offices or walk-in clinics were open. Pray that he will recover quickly so that his vacation will not be dampered. My boys are having a wonderful time. They are truly enjoying all of the undivided attention from "Gramie and Grandad" and Reece. They are their 3 favorite people in their world. It is really cute to watch! Anyways, I am going to get back to my family now. I will post more tomorrow and post pictures hopefully.
