Beach bums

We spent almost every waking moment of our vacation on the beach. The weather was gorgeous--warm, but not too hot with almost a constant gentle breeze. In fact, we only ventured away from the cottage one morning to go in to Fremont for breakfast and a quick stop at the grocery store. Other than that it was just relaxation! While Nathan napped every day, Todd snoozed too and I caught up on my reading. Then it was back to the beach until dinner and bed time! This was the most time I've spent with Nathan since my maternity leave, and it was wonderful! I think that all three of us really needed a good chunk of time with no obligations and no schedule.

The golf cart was a huge hit with our vehicle-obsessed son. In fact, we rarely got it out because when it was available, N had eyes for nothing else!

My boys!!!

Hamming it up for the camera

Todd and Nathan working on a very important project--creating a harbor for the toy boats!

Look at that concentration (and the sweet dimple and pudgy wrists!)

Keeping an eye on the perimeter

Playing with the tractor--the metal Tonka trucks were a favorite!

Sharing a treasure with Daddy

Not so sure he likes being in the lake...
