yesterday

… we went to the beach.

A three hour drive there. A three hour drive home.

And in between, a whole lot of fun.

Honestly, I don’t see how you could take eleven kids to the beach and not have fun.

More pictures from our beach trip soon… for today I wanted to share a favorite.

For more Friday Favorites, visit my friend Lisa’s blog, The Long Road to China.

    There is no place quite like the beach. I can’t wait to see more photos from your day. Introducing my girls to the sand and waves for the first time…two days I will never forget. Magical…

    This is so sweet. I’m amazed that you can keep up with 11 kids, but it really is amazing and so kind! That photo is beautiful.

    You sure that little sweetie’s sn was low birth weight? What a cute little bikini pudge belly she is rocking! The beach is my happy place. I love to pull my chair up near where the water just tickles your toes and zone out listening to worship music. I can’t imagine living more than a couple hours from the beach. Can’t wait to see more pics!
