Surf's Up!

And up it was! The red flags were flying at the Lifeguard Stations all day, but it sure made for some good boogie boardin'! (Even though our friend's 8-year-old daughter had to be rescued by the lifeguards before we got there.) We headed down to one of our favorite beaches and met up with some friends for some fun in the sun. The Dad's went out ridin' together....I was finally able to drag my friend out for a try at it. She's from California and has lived in southern Georgia for more than 6 years and has never been boarding - what the heck! She wasn't quick to admit it, but I think she had fun with it.Blake was even able to catch a few good rides once it calmed down a bit.The younger kids opted to play in a pit that somebody had dug out before we got there - aka the playpen. The pictures don't do it justice, but it was pretty deep. The older kids had fun running and jumping off the sides down into it.All in all it was a BEAUTIFUL Florida day at the beach, wish ya were there to enjoy it with us!

Hey guys-be careful out in the water...It's shark week on the discovery channel-we wouldn't want any of you to end up as lunch!
I haven't boarded in years and boy do I miss it. Catch a good wave for me!

Hey DeAnne! I haven't heard from you in FOREVER and you haven't updated you blog very often to know what you've been up to. (I know you've mentioned health problems, hope all is well) As for shark week...we know all about it! Blake has been obsesssed about sharks for a couple of years, so we've been watching the Discovery Channel lots this week, needless to say! Good to hear from ya!
