InstaFriday ~ A Sneak Peek at Our Week





We're back from the beach and I still haven't made time to share a proper post on Disney, so who knows when I'll get around to sharing all the fun we had at the beach this summer. Counter tops are in, faucets are in {mostly}, bedroom carpet is in {finally}. It's been a busy, messy week around here, so I am loving this little look back at life at the beach...
 
One of our favorite things to do at the beach {there are so many} is to take evening golf cart rides. On this particular night the ocean breeze and setting sun lulled Mallory to sleep in no time!


Have you read The Language of Flowers? I devoured it at the beach ~ I loved every word of it and highly recommend it. 
On our last night we took a walk on the beach and what did we see but a rainbow over the ocean ~ so pretty!
The girls and I have been enjoying trips our trips to the library this summer. Here's my lineup for the next three weeks...
Sweet Frog opened while we were at the beach, so after going to see Monster's University today, the girls and I had our first chance to stop in for the yummiest frozen yogurt. I can see this becoming an addiction!

We hope you've had a great week, as well!

Instafriday ~ A Peek at Our Week

Another week is quickly coming to an end, and even though we're at the beach this week through Sunday and there's still plenty of summer fun to be had, I can't help that I've already begun the back to school count down. To help me forget August is right around the corner, here are a few Instagram snaps from our week…

Before leaving for the beach, we celebrated Connor's birthday by visiting the playground for a while before going to get some frozen yogurt at Yohut. We're excited to get home from the beach for one reason ~ Sweet Frog opened up near us just this week. We've been waiting for what seems like forever. I see A LOT of frozen yogurt in our future. 
This was a quick pic from our first night at the beach…

After her first full day of sand and sun Anna Claire was wiped out! There's nothing like a nice nap after a fun day at the beach. What I wouldn't give…

Mallory has been loving riding the waves on her new boogie board. She's already a pro. Anna Claire is a bit less interested and has more fun just floating along wearing her inflatable ring. The waves have been great for just hanging out in the water.

An impromptu tea party on the beach…

And Anna Claire has been getting creative designing mermaids out of sea shells on the sand. Can you "see" her mermaid?

We had a brief rain shower yesterday so we spent that time browsing the gift shops.  Mallory tripped and fell on the sidewalk hurting her knee, but a stop in the candy shop made things all better. 

Gotta have a picture of the girls names written in the sand to commemorate the week…

Last night we took a long walk on the beach. It was so nice I could have walked for miles. 

It looks like our last few days could be a washout with rain expected today and tomorrow. Hopefully we'll have a little sun tomorrow allowing us to play on the beach one more day before heading home Sunday…in the meantime, I was able to get a little reading done today. 
Speaking of home…our new countertops, sinks, and faucets were installed today. I cannot wait to get home and see everything in person!
Hope you all are having a great week!
