Beach trip with Liounis clan

Beach Vacation with the Liounis Family

Nan and Poppop get a beach house in Ocean City, NJ every year.

We're invited to stay as long as we'd like.

The girls and I always go down for a few days during the week.

This vacation was very different for us...

no strollers, no naps, girls riding waves independently, girls riding rides independently, & only MacNMancos twice!!

This is one of my favorite memories...

The girls learned that singing into a fan sounds funny.

So , they sang at all times and danced around the fan like it was their first time, every time!!

The ice cream bells rang every hour or so...

the girls finally broke me down into buying them one.
Look at Jenni's face...
the smile tells it all.
She wasn't much good at Paddle Ball, but she LOVED spanking Poppop with her paddle!
I love how her leg goes up with her arm whenever she swings.
She also decided that whenever she'd jump over a wave, her hands were held up like bunny paws and she would hop... so cute!!
Pretty pix with the beautiful weather we had...

We went to the rides only one night...

We were all beat!

The girls even turned down icecream and Jenni fell asleep sitting UP on the edge of Morgan's stroller while we walked to the car!!

The girls LOVE Morgan's chubby legs...

morgan LOVES the beach!

Poppop riding a wave in.

He'd ride on the boogie board and when he passed Jaylee, Meg would put her on his back and she'd get a good ride!!

He also took Jaylee way out deep and one morning he took Jaylee to the huge water slides on the boardwalk... she had a blast!!

Jenni in her cool-girl glasses getting braver and braver in the water.

Jaylee romping around with Meg.

One morning we all went for a bike ride.

Jaylee got her own bike and Nan TRIED to keep up with her.

Poppop kept running in to high school friends.

Mandy and I pedalled and pedalled but really didnt get too far.

Morgan fell asleep on her diaper bag during the ride.

Nan on her bike.

Jennibelle believes that SHE was stearing us through traffic.

Meg's 24th Bday.

The Mac N Manco's crew sang to her.

Haha...
