The Beach trip we will not soon forget!

So our beach trip with my parents was eventful to say the least! Neilie brought along a stomach virus that was passed around to me, Claire, and my mom! Now this is your ordinary 24 hour bug! When I called the doctor they said it was a 7 DAY VIRUS!!! Are you kidding me!?!?!? Who gets a 7 day virus on the first night of vacation? The Puckett/Chappell Clan thats who! Talk about a bummer! We still made a good time of it. we were able to get a little time on the beach.

Isn't that a sweet baby!?! This was pre-stomach virus... just a tired little one!



Neilie didn't love the beach! She had rather swim in the pool but she made the best of it.



Ok this is my little ClaireBear pouring buckets of ocean water on herself. She loved it! When she would run out of water she would hand them to my mom for her to go fill up. My mom tried to take her with her but she was terrified of the ocean!!!



Check out this "Big Girl"! She is into that now. Anything she does is the Big Girl fill-in-the-blank! Oh and by the way... she is really into Peter Pan. I told her this was a balance beam but she said she was having to "Walk the Plank!" I love her creativity!



The last pic is one of Claire and her favorite person... her Papa!!! She loves him. Her name is Claire Thomas after my daddy... kinda likes she knows she is his namesake! Neat, huh!?!



Overall we had a good time but next year... we are bringing more towels!
