Beach Trip! Tuesday
It was our last day at the beach, and we were all feeling a little down to be heading back to real life.. But, we made the most of the time we had. The kids enjoyed some time on the porch after breakfast. Brian was pretty absorbed in the iPad, as Kendall fully enjoyed the porch swing.

Brandon and I worked on packing up, while Brian made a blanket fort...

Kendall was happy to see Brian on the ice,...
