life's a beach

ethan and i just spent a week at the beach with my family! my older sister and her family were there, and my younger sister as well! we were missing my brother, his wife, and my husband! :(

we had a wonderful time-- with 4 little kiddos underfoot, a great big beach to entertain us, and a bunch of Harmons in a house together, there was lots of activity, lots of sand, and lots of talking! we played in the water, built sandcastles, surfed (by "we", i mean my bro-in-law, nieces, and younger sister...surfing isn't very pregnancy-friendly), played board games, ate way too much, and had a blast!

no actual beach pictures to share, unfortunately...the one downer to owning a fancy camera-- it doesn't mix well with sand and water! here are the non-beach pictures from our beach week!

too cool for school...

i'm serious, but i'm having fun!
