Beach Trip 2014

WARNING: Lots of pictures ahead! 

This year we headed back to the beach for the now annual Schlenker Family Beach Trip. This was EK's third time to go to the beach and Cash's first. This time we headed in-state to the Fort Morgan area. I was able to find us a two bedroom condo (that was a must with two kids) for a great rate and off we went to the beach! 

Elly K didn't want the sun in her eyes on the way down there, so a hat did the trick:

Cash need a little Momma lovin' to get to sleep:

BEACH FUN:

Elly K told Cash "no, baby Tash, you will fall off!":

Her version of laying out:

 So much digging to be accomplished:

 He loved it:

 Our little model:

 This look meant that something was in his mouth (which was all the time on the beach):

 Sweet Love (and Cash still has something in his mouth):

 And the look we would get when we took away what ever object he had in his mouth (possible objects: shells, sticks, or just hand fulls of sand):

 Ruffles and Waves:

 Watching sister:

 The second day we were there, the waves were leaving puddles of water higher up on the beach. This was perfect for EK and Cash. She would run and jump in the "muddy puddles" (she loves Peppa Pig) and Cash would just giggle when he got splashed:

 Love baby bellies and a speedo:

 Checking on Cash:

 "Cheese":

 More water to jump in:

 She loved to throw the sand too:

 Remember the little girl that wouldn't even get in a pool or a river just a couple of weeks before this trip?? Well don't worry, that fear is over for sure now.

 How we got to the beach:

 Lounging in her beach chair that "Dam" bought her before the trip:

 "Cheese" again:

 Our other little digger:

Our set up for two days:

And our dinner for two nights (Jonathan out did himself because the meals were amazing):

 Once again, we had a great time at the beach! The kids loved it and we love getting to see them play in the sand (although not fun to clean off). Can't wait till next September for the 3rd Annual Schlenker Family Beach Trip!!!
