The next day, the boys wanted to go to the beach but we decided to make a pitstop at the Seaside Lagoon. They have water slides and fun stuff to do. Trev liked hanging with his big cousins.
Emma liked to play in the sand
Ryden preferred playing in the sand with Ben over being in the water. Too stingy on his legs..
Sara got some great shots of Jacob sliding down the slide....hilarious dismount
The kids got bored of the lagoon and really wanted to go to the real beach so we headed out. We stopped for lunch and some treats first. Jacob was really diggin' his legoland cookie.
The beach was perfect. Trev was assed out on the blanket the whole time, so Sara and I got to lay in the sun while Jason and Steve took the other kids in the ocean..

Total beach bum. This kid was in the water the whole time!

My two little dudes
We left the beach and everyone freshened up. Emma made sure to stay close to her homegirl, Molly.
So fresh and so clean
Onward, to dinner, to celebrate the birthday girl! Here she is opening her card from me and Cody.
And here I am, taking a picture of Emma's art work because I was super impressed with the rainbow accents.
Ben and Ryden...ole buddies ole pals
My girl, Emma, made us matching necklaces from pipe cleaners.
Cheers to Sara. Happy Birthday!
Time for the birthday song. Jason looks WAY too into that cake.
Trev is WAY into singing
Sara so kindly sharing her whipped cream with the little boy
Birthday hugs for Aunt Sara
After dinner, we headed down to the pier to catch the sunset.
