Beach Vacation: Day 5

More Beach! And this time Colin decided that the ocean wasn't half bad!!

See! Colin likes the waves!

Although, he didn't really like it when one snuck up and hit him in the face!

Gillian really seemed to enjoy the salt that accumulated on her lips. It was pretty cute:

Back to the house for another bath, another lunch, and another nap! (We like routine!!)

After their nap C&G took another dip in the pool!

Colin wanted to chill outside the pool for a while:

That evening Michael and I left the babies in the very competent Grandma hands, and we went out to dinner by ourselves. We had a nice dinner, walked around downtown, and strolled the boardwalk. It was a little odd to be out and about without our younglings, and Michael said to me, "It's strange that no one is looking at us. Where is all of our attention?" Our kids really do attract a lot of attention!

When we got back to the beach house, the babies were sound asleep, happily. Michael decided we would head down to the beach to try out his new X-Wing Fighter kite that his mom had given him for his birthday. The pictures aren't so great, but you get the idea:

Only ONE day of vacation left!

Colin looks so much happier on day 5 than on day 1. I totally understand his concerns about the ocean. I prefer to be in a pool where the water is clear & my feet can touch the bottom without getting smacked in the face with a wave.
That is a great picture of you & Michael! Both of you look happy & relaxed. Vacation was a good for everyone!
