Allow me to introduce you to our humble beachfront abode, where we played corn hole in the evenings...
walked to the beach whenever we so pleased…
saw a doe and her tiny fawn IN OUR BACKYARD!!!
and a fox, since seeing deer wasn’t enough...
took pics of each other...
drank beers and discussed golf scores in the pool...
and warmed up in the hot tub.
It was a great week. The best part was having my brother and sis-in-law with us, since it had been over a year since their last visit to America. (They live in Seoul.)
I can’t be steps from the ocean and NOT spend all day running between the sand and the water, so I camped under an umbrella every day and read and swam my little heart out.
At the house, we played corn hole (Andy and I won our family tournament), huddled around jigsaw puzzles, talked trash to each other while playing Pinochle, Settlers and Ticket to Ride, watched the World Cup and NBA finals and, most importantly, we ate. We all gained several pounds from the waffles, french toast bagels, donuts, crab cakes, bulgogi, sausage and cheese biscuits, strawberry shortcakes...and that’s only half of it!
Last year Andy and I tried to play mini golf, but a crazy storm hit while we were on the road. We made it happen this trip though, and John-Michael and Sky joined us. I hit a hole in one!
I asked Sky if she would snap some pics of me showing off my bump. (She took all of these beach pictures that I’m sharing.) I’m so glad that I have these pictures of me with my baby girl. I know, I know, my belly looks huge here. I had probably just eaten a bagel, okay?!
Laura! What.the.heck?? I feel like a horrible friend. I've known you all these years and I had NO idea you were a model. Seriously, those are some stunning pictures of you.
ReplyDeleteSky is a talented photographer, but like Amy said, when you're photographing someone so beautiful it's hard to mess up. You look amazing with your sweet Janie Lou. Love you friend!
