Just after we arrived, Uncle Dave cut some coconuts out of the tree. This is becoming a tradition when we visit, and all of the girls sat and watched to make sure he got all of them…then they proceeded to divide them up!
Check out the bedheads on these two! They slept in late then decided to help Amanda make some pancakes.
I didn't get any pictures at Zac Brown Band concert we went to. And unfortunately the cell phone that did manage to capture some pictures was lost at some point that night. That might be a good thing….
The next morning, we woke up bright and early to prepare for the big party. It was at the beach club so the girls all stayed home while everything was getting setup. With the exception of a few showers, the day was gorgeous. And as you can see from the picture below, the rain was just as big of a hit as the sunshine!
Maysie and Railey spent the first hour of the party searching for seashells. Finally I told them that I would buy them seashells so I wouldn't have to be the keeper of the shells.
During one of the showers, Amanda took the opportunity to serve cake. Claire was all smiles to be the center of attention. I have a feeling that she and Maysie will be swapping "middle child" stories for years to come.
And what party is complete without a piñata.
I didn't manage to get many pictures of Jack, but this one cracked me up. Messy face and obviously annoyed that I made him stand still to take a picture. He is SUCH a great kid but he definitely gave me a reality check of how crazy it is going to be to chase Ansley around in just 8 short months.
Finally it was time to head to the beach for some playing and surfing. Both of which my girls LOVED.
Turns out that the birthday girl loves to pose for pictures.
All of the dads, especially Uncle Dave, were so sweet to Railey and Maysie. They made sure that they were well taken care of in the ocean.
