We made another trip out to Martha's Vineyard this summer staying with John's brother and his family. We invited Bonnie (Izzy's BFF) to join us. Beach fun included catching crabs with our left over lunchmeat from our sandwiches.
Having Bonnie with us was fun on many levels. The girls loved playing in the ocean together. John and I couldn't resist showing off our water shoes from Six Flags. The shoes we originally bought got lost. We were left buying what was available inside the park. Being the 4th of July, these were the only option.
Boogie boards are always so much fun.
The older kids one evening headed out on John's brother, Jim's boat. The girls drove the boat with very serious faces. Izzy caught a sea bass.
While the older kids were out in the boat, I stayed with Micah & Victoria. We have learned quickly that Micah gets motion sick. We decided to spend our time in an air conditioned arcade. Leave it to Victoria to rack up mega points. She willingly shared with Micah so that they each walked away with great prizes.
Riding America's oldest carousel, The Flying Horse and eating ice cream. Can't beat that combination.
One evening we fished along the shore line. Bonnie caught the most amount of fish even compared to the adults.
Micah and Victoria played in the sand. I love these two pictures because they showcase each of their personalities to a tee!
This was probably my favorite part of the trip. Izzy saw a shell in the shallow part of the ocean. She couldn't quite reach it without getting her close wet. Little did we know the chonch was still living in his shell! Back into the ocean he went after many oohs and aahs.
