Beachy Keen!

On Sunday we had a family cook out and got to see The Husband's brothers, a couple whom we haven't seen in a few years. The Son got a chance to play with his cousin, The Nephew who is not quite a year younger than him. They were like long lost friends, it was so sweet. We also got to hang out with the Teen Niece who is turning 15 today! Hard to believe. Happy Birthday Teen Niece! Here's some photos of our evening at "Mother's Beach." The beaches of Maine are SO beautiful and this is the beach we've been going to for years, in fact, The Husband and The Uncles grew up going to this beach. First, take a look at some of the homes here... kinda cute, huh?
Yep! I'll take it!

Here's a couple photos of the brothers, you can definitely see the family resemblance, don't you think? In age range, The Husband is the third brother. In these pictures, he's the one in the pink polo in case you didn't already realize that.



Here's some shots of The Cousins, best buddies and the Teen Niece looking pretty cute in her bikini. Don't we all wish we still had the body of our 15-year-old self?





Lastly, now that you're probably sick of looking at pictures of people you don't know, I'll leave you with our immediate family...




Tomorrow, I'll post some pictures of us on the beach, playing in the sand, finding sea creatures, etc. Good times are being had by all and by "good times" I mean, The Son and The Husband are spending plenty of time doing "Boy Stuff" as The Son calls it and I've been hanging out in the beach chair relaxing and taking pictures of all the Boy Stuff. Just so you know, Boy Stuff involves a lot of digging in the sand, lifting rocks to find crabs and snails and exploration of multiple tidal pools... sounds like I should probably stick to the beach chair, huh?

Have a great Wednesday everyone! Stay healthy!

Ah to be 15 again...

Well, come to think of it I really do NOT want to be 15 again. Ugh! Hated the teen years. But I'll take the body, please.
