Addy helping Aunt Jean blow out her candles. We looked at the pics on the wall of past beach birthday celebrations and determined that Jean had the same cake in front of her in pretty much all of the pictures. Granny's chocolate cake is legendary! And still as tasty as ever I might add!

The water looks really brown in this pic, but it was really nice. Not as hot as you'd expect, seeing as it was end of August. No seaweed. I think that the surf was a bit rough because of the hurricane that was going on over in Louisiana, but Ella probably spent more time in the water this trip than any other. We had a fun time just sitting in water.
This pic represents what was likely the highlight of the trip for Addison. We wake up Saturday AM and Addy goes to put her suit on and we realize that someone (me) forgot to pack a swimsuit for her. Feeling like a terrible mom at that point, she was guaranteed to get whatever swimsuit she wanted from the Big Store. So, that is how the bikini came about. I have zero objections to bikinis, but they always are so big on her or generally don't fit well that I tend to steer her away from them. This was literally the only swimsuit at the store that fit her though, so bikini it is! She is lookin' pretty cute I might add. She actually asked me to take this pic so that her grandparents could see it!
Certainly hoping to make it to the beach over the fall/winter, but the way the weekends are filling up with birthday parties and other activities, not sure when it will be!
