Our Last Full Day at the Beach!

Ken woke me at 5:50 so we could go for a bike ride before the house "woke up".  Both of us tired after only getting to bed around 12:30.  We rode to the new bridge that crosses Indian River.  We missed seeing the sunrise from the bridge by about 10 minutes, but it was still beautiful.  We were back at the Condo by 7:40 after riding 10 1/2 miles.  So glad we got out of bed early!

Beautiful New Bridge

Ken loves taking photos of sunrises and sunsets!



More tennis for Grandma, Lanie and Jamie while the girls were entertained on the playground by Dane, Bob, and PaPa.  I must get together with the girls more often to play tennis.  All of us play at about the same level and it is great fun while getting some good exercise. 

It was a beautiful day, so we were all on the beach by 10:45.  All the girls love standing on the surf edge with their feet in and out of the water and playing in the sand.  Bria likes to help me look for shell pieces for my jewelry making projects.  Ken and I stayed an extra hour while the moms and dads got the little ones bathed and down for their naps. 



Lanie and Bob left when we returned to take a 1 1/4 hour bike ride.  Good for them to have some alone time!  The ladies spent time doing laundry and some packing since we have to be out of the Condo by 10 AM tomorrow.  Can't believe the week is almost over.  It went by so quickly!

We ordered in Grotto Pizza for dinner on the deck and then to Bethany Beach for our last walk on the beach and ice cream.  The little ones went right to bed when we returned at 8 and the adults were in bed by 10:30 following a game of 9 Hole Golf.

Jamie and her daughters

They are just so "darn cute".

The entire happy family!


What an unbelievable sunset the last night.  The sky really
was this red!!!


It was raining when we got up on Saturday so we ate breakfast, loaded the cars and we were all on our way home by 9.  What a fun and memorable family week!
