After breakfast this morning, dad did the dishes (washed and dried) while Gayla and I went to the laundromat and did laundry.  Dad and I went shopping to spend our Bell's Bucks.  We got $102's worth of free stuff because Wes and Gayla gave us their bucks too.  Dad got tennis shoes and I got a top.  We got back and saw that Wes, Gayla and Joel were at the beach.  We grabbed our Sportsbrella, chairs and beach bag and walked to the beach.  We were their quite a while relaxing and watching all the people on the beach. It was absolutely beautiful weather again.

If you look close you will see two handsome beach bums at the very left coming out of the water. Isn't the color of the water gorgeous.  It's breathtaking!

Love this picture of Joel enjoying a nice cold pepsi!

Dad suntanning by the sportsbrella.

Me shading under the sportsbrella.  Our place we are staying is right behind us to the right.

Love seeing all the colorful umbrellas.  We had to laugh when an old guy walked by us in a speedo.  Gayla said  Bill and Wes couldn't wear one because they love the doughnut experience too much.  

Our neighbors on the beach!


Saw this big bird on our walk back to resort.  Some kind of heron.

Dad and Wes walking to see the sunset straight ahead on the beach.  To the left is our resort.
It was a fun and relaxing day.  After spending the afternoon on the beach, we came home for a swim.  Then Gayla and I made spaghetti, garlic toast, and fresh green beans.  We ate watermelon for dessert.  Missing my family and can't wait to hug them when I get home.  Got to talk to all of them on the phone.  Called Hailey to tell her how much we love the book she made for us.  We can only read one every week.  It is so sweet and it is a treasure we will keep forever.  Thank you sweet Hailey!  Loved getting to talk to each of the boys too.  Also had a special treat and got to face time Vikki and the kids to watch the sun set together.
The people playing the music, played How Great Thou Art and I can Only Imagine when the sun was setting.
