Home Again

We have just returned from our vacation in Myrtle Beach and twins had a wonderful time. Shea had my friends 4 months old baby to pay attention to all week and also a 7 year old playmate in my friends daughter Olivia. We were a little concerned she would not go in the sand or the ocean but she proved us wrong. She played in the sand all day and even splashed around in the ocean. She was brave enough to even go on some of the rides at the boardwalk including a solo spin on the merry go round. Cooper had a new best friend in my friend's son John. the two of them were thick as thieves all week. At any given time you could find the two of them running all over pretending to be Power Rangers or wrestling on the ground as super heroes. He went on a ride or two but wasn't as brave as his brother or sister. Both kids had such a great time with their friends and the beach and the pool and can't wait to go away with everyone again next year. They were also great on the ride there and the ride home. It was a long haul from home and they only asked 50 or 60 times when we were going to be there. Cooper also of course came down with a double ear infection on our last day there but even that couldn't slow him down from having fun. All in all this vacation created some great memories these kids will carry for a long time. Now it is time to get back in the swing and ready for school again!
