Summer Vacation 2011

We just returned from a week-long family vacation to Panama City Beach, Florida. We stayed at Sunnyside Beach and Tennis with the Kelley side of our family and had a blast! The pictures in this post show some of our adventures while we were there. The first photo shows Hubble and the boys as we were waiting in line to go into Wonder Works.

Brady is taking his turn on the off road atv game.

And now for our afternoon photo session with the cousins...




My handsome boys......





Brady....




....and Conner....



Hubble had to go back to work a few days before our vacation was officially over...so no family photo for us....just Mom and the boys!





I had to throw this one in. It captures how they really feel about getting pictures made!





Especially this one!






Much better, boys!







The Kelley Cousins:



Jackson, Brynne, Dylan, Conner and Brady




Top to bottom.....oldest to youngest! :)



And finally, our last night there...a trip to Captain Anderson's and the marina.....











The beginning of our LONG wait for dinner...




The boys....waiting ever so patiently!





And Brynne....sitting still long enough for Aunt Joy to get a great picture!






....
walking along the docks and seeing the catch from all the boats....






...
with Uncle Russell leading the way! (this is my favorite!)






Brady...posing for one more pic!






And Conner...trying to be cooperative for Mom!







...
checking out the pirate.....







...posing with the pirate....






Lending a hand to a younger cousin...oh if only he could be that patient with his younger brother!




Well, once again we had a great vacation and enjoyed spending time with our family. We have enjoyed our summer and although we are planning for a few more fun activities before school resumes, we realize the summer is speeding by way too fast! In just a few short weeks, we will have a 4th grader and a middle school student! WOW!




We have been truly blessed and are thankful for every blessing from above!





"I will tell of the kindness of the Lord, the deeds for which He is to be praised, according to all the Lord has done for us." Isaiah 63:7
