Beach Trip!

We had an interesting experience last weekend. It was finally warm enough to head to the beach! Brian found a great deal for a half price hotel room at a beach that's about an hour drive from here. When we got about 5 minutes from the beach, Kelsie threw up in the new (used) car. Guess that's the appropriate way to break in a new car when you have kids. Turned out to be motion sickness and she was fine a few minutes later.

Then we got to the hotel to find out it was gay pride weekend there! So we saw some interesting outfits and the kids liked all the rainbow flags, but other than that they didn't notice anything unusual. They were sound asleep before we started hearing the raucous parties around the hotel.

But overall it was a great trip. The weather was just barely warm enough, although the water was FREEZING. After a few hours at the beach we went to the boardwalk for burgers and mini golf (Kelsie loved it, Dylan did not respect the game).

Not really getting the point of the goggles:

Totally normal kids:

He thought the object of the game was to go retrieve our golf balls after we putted, and kindly take them to the hole for us and drop them in. So we got a lot of holes in 1. Set some kind of record, I think.
