Vacation 2012

Well, we had a wonderful time on vacation to Myrtle Beach. It didn't rain one day, sand, sun, pool...it was perfect!!! Ready to go to the beach...

One of my FAVORITE pictures...Lilee really got into the waves this year with no fear!!!

The big boys spent most of their time IN the ocean so we didn't get many pictures of them at all!!!

The pool had a cool area for kids to play with a water slide & waterfall!!!

Lilee had her 7th birthday while we were at the beach so of course we had to have a celebration!! She had so much fun & she said it was special (which she was worried about it being because she wasn't at home for her party!!) But we decorated & had a big time!!

My sisters two foster children where in the picture, so for their protection I have covered their faces, but they had a good time too!!

Checking out her new game...

Getting ready for dinner...

Of course we had to go to Buil@ a B@ar....

Our last trip down the slide...

We had an amazing time!! Can't wait till next year!!!

Lilee's B-day with her BFF

Before we went on vacation, Lilee wanted to get her nails done with her BFF (her words), Emma. So, the day before we left off we went to get their nails done!!! So many choices!!!

Choice is made...

This is the life....
