Big Celebrations

beach
Well, the time is finally here.  We got to bring Hope to the beach to celebrate her 13th birthday (WHAT?!) and she's living it up.  Being from the middle of the US, any time you get to be near an exceptionally large body of water, it is a little bit mid-blowing.  This will be the first time Poesy remembers a family vacation and I couldn't be happier about it.  If you've been reading my blog for any extended period of time, you probably can't even figure out how in the world Hope's about to be a teenager.  I'm right there with you.  From now until Saturday I'm living in denial.  She's still 5, right?  Sure.  Sure she is.

  2. Happy birthday to her! I can't imagine what it must be like to live so far away from an ocean. I guess it would make the beach even that much more special!

    P.S. When is Hope starting her own blog? Her posts from a couple years ago were some of my favorite.

  7. Happy birthday Hope. I hope you all have a fabulous vacation. I love the photo here Katie. It really shows just how huge the beach and ocean are for you. I live near the beach in Australia, but I can still appreciate the immensity of the ocean. Enjoy your time there :)
