still the first day!

{be patient with me...i'm on pat's laptop which is just weird to me. and i can't edit the pictures in 2 seconds like i normally can...so things won't look like i would want them...but you'll get the idea!}

started out the day with some exercise { :-) }
my dad and i ran together.
pat took ALL 6 kids on a bike ride.
everyone else went on a walk.

spent a few minutes in the pool...

then we got our toes in the sand!!! finally!!!
{sawyer LOVES the beach!}

kind of a weird weather day...cloudy...but hot and humid.
kind of nice to be on the beach.
rebekah's smile in this picture could not be any more genuine!


{and joshua wants to be out there so badly...}
so papa {and later daddy} were very sweet to work with him!



we are enjoying all just being together!
my whole family is in 1 house.
and the "richmond crew" {2 of my mom's sister's and their families} arrive today!
we are having a LUAU at our house tonight for both houses...
{there's a thunderstorm right now...so we're figuring out how this is going to play out...but no matter what it will be fun!}
