Our Family Vacation!

Last week we all had the week off and enjoyed a family vacation!  Since were already at the beach, we didn't have to go anywhere.  We just enjoyed each beautiful, sunny day that we were blessed with!
These two love each other so much!
 I can't even express how blessed we feel to have watched a beautiful sunset every night.  The night before 4th of July was one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL sunsets we have ever seen!
 Brooke and Sharon joined in on the fun
Pictures just don't do it justice.
 Spectacular!
 After the sunset there was a great fireworks display
 Natalie went to Children's Chapel each morning and loved it!  At the end of the week her class performed a special song and Bible verse that they had been working on all week.
 Natalie was excited to see all of us waiting to watch the program in the front row!
 She did a GREAT job!!!!
 ALL the kids- elementary and preschool.  What a blessing to see all these kids worshiping Jesus!

 Natalie's front row fan club...can you tell we love that little girl?!  :)
 Gigi and Natalie...two beautiful ladies!
We didn't take any beach pictures because we were too busy running around the sand dunes and splashing in the water to say "cheese"!  Natalie learned to swim without any floaties although she still needs someone nearby to rescue her when she gets tired.  We were so proud of her!  Her favorite part of the week was wearing her new goggles and jumping into the "deepest" (that is what she calls the "deep end") and touching the bottom. 
Stratton got more comfortable in the water too.  He did a great job of kicking, going underwater and jumping into the water.

Wes and I enjoyed our time as a family and extra time for just the two of us!  We had a blast and treasured every day together :)
