The Beach…

Posted by Becky Published in Uncategorized

(Note: This is the 3rd attempt to write this blog, every night when I sit down to write it I fall asleep. So because Noby got up at 7 this morning, and Memere is reading him books right now I figure I might be able to finish it.)

We are having such an amazing time here at the beach. My original plan was to try to post every day but really we haven’t had much to say. Each day happens pretty much the same… (OH yeah and I keep falling asleep as I try to post.)

1. We wake up. – Now this time varies every day. For example the first night Mr Noby decided he was done sleeping at 4 am, at 5 that day we got up and went for a walk, we didn’t want to wake up the entire house. Other days he has slept till 6 and one day 7, but nothing like the 8:30/9 like at home, and here he gets up SEVERAL times a night. 🙁

2. Mom and I try to work on the puzzle. ~~We are already on the second puzzle!!~~! We have now finished the second one!

3. Brenda makes us breakfast, she’s so good she makes special orders. So much so that my dad even made a song for her. “You can get anything you want, at Brenda’s restaurant!”

4. We all get ready for the beach.

5. Kathy (with or without kids) arrive.

6. Head to the beach, this has been mostly around 10ish.

7. Set up at the beach. Pretty much the say way every day; Noby’s pack n play against the fence, my chair, Kathy, Mom, Brenda, the two umbrellas, and the blanket. With coolers, bags and toys in between. Now this varies too because some days there are alot more people; The Hansens, the Ashiharas, the Blackburns, the Gardockis, and the Falconieris. We have had as low as 6 people and as high as 17 people! We owned the beach that day!!

8. We spend the entire day on the beach, coming back to the house only to make some lunches. It has been great to have the cottage so close, if we forget anything we can just run back to the house, lunches are always fresh, and it’s easy enough to do a half a day at the beach because you can just walk back if you want.

9. When we get back from the beach we give Noby a bath in his little swimming pool, then we all take showers and clean off.

10. Then we start dinner. We had dinners planned for the week, plus special nights like Taco Night with the Gardockis, Dinner at the Blackburns and 1 Great Meal Out.

11. After dinner, we work on the puzzle, read books, play a little Wii, try to write blogs, until we all fall asleep and do it all again the next day. What a life.

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the week…
