Resolution #372

Time for a new post, huh?!  The blogging silence has been unintentional, but living life and being intentional in the moment has been intentional.  Reminds me of the Little House of the Prairie DVD where the girls are involved in a school play.  During the play, the acting is suddenly stalled as 'real life' takes over.  At the end of the play Mary says to her parents.  "Play acting's o.k. I guess, but when it turns out right, real life is a whole lot better!"
  A few weeks ago, one of our PA friends had arrived for a visit to FL.  She had never seen the ocean at all....which is so hard of me to imagine that.  So, the girls and I took her to the beach for an afternoon. 

I took the normal shovels and sand buckets, but what the girls did the most was stand in the crashing surf.  HA  I really need to get them to the beach more often!

A little photo for her to remember her time here....

and without saying a word, Katrina decided she liked that idea and wrote her name in cursive!  Yes, I know she looks uncomfortable and unnatural, but she insisted on staying exactly that way until I took her picture!  HA  Check out the cursive, though - this Mommy was pretty impressed!

I triple ♥ this picture of Courtney!  You can tell just by looking at her she was having the time of her life!!

Love seeing her in motion...she has the cutest run!

Katie loved running in the surf and splashing as much as possible!  O yeah, and falling down on "accident" :)

This girl she'd live outside if she was allowed!  I'm telling you, I got so much enjoyment out of our beach time, just from watching them thorougly enjoying God's creation!

So, Resolution #372 is all about going to the beach more often :)
