This Week in Pictures

This week we went to the beachhouse in Bethany Beach, Delaware with my mom's side of the family, one of my favorite weeks of the year. I've tried my hardest to narrow down the pictures, but I can't promise it's short! Here is a recap of the week, we had a great time and were sad to leave the beach but happy to realize that soon we'll be living at one! We flew to D.C. and Shane was so excited that he stayed up pretty late. But at 7 am the next morning when the sun came up, he decided he was already on Eastern time. "Look mom, I'm on Eastern time!"
"No you're not sweetheart"

We got to the beach on the Fourth of July


Shane enjoyed playing in the sand

Everything's more fun at the beach

"Does my belly look fat in this mom?"

He dipped his feet in the ocean

And played in the pool

Rode bikes

Went to the boardwalk and tried shaved ice for the first time. He wasn't so sure about it at first,


But then he saw the light


He had fun with girl cousins! Quite different than boys

As the resident manly man he gave them piggy back rides (okay not really)


But he did love pulling their hair

And tried to kiss them of course. One time I overheard 4 year old Kate politely telling him, "No thank you Shane."

Then he flew home and had a grand old time. I'm hoping for some of that to carry over to the 10 hour car ride back to Manti tomorrow, but I won't count on that for the long flight to Dominica! Notice he's strategically dressed in his "Fly Guy" outfit. Don't you just hate when parents do that? ;)
