We just returned from our annual family beach week. Through the years our family always sets aside this special week to gather together. No matter how old we are, we are beach people. From the grands to our children and finally ourselves we must have salt water running through our veins. My parents were the same.
I had never seen this photo of my parents until after they had passed away. I'm pretty sure it was taken before I was born. Being at the beach always reminds me of my parents. This same beach week was observed with them until they left this earth. There is something special about beaches to my parents and now me and my children and grands.
Find us a beach and we are happy to be there. We don't need fancy, just a chair and an umbrella and the beautiful ocean spreading before us. Our weather was gorgeous during our special week. One afternoon we had threatening clouds with a little rain, so we retreated to work on a puzzle our son-in-law gifted Grayden.
Here is the M&M 1,000 piece puzzle put together. I never knew there were so many different kinds of M&Ms!
Getting up early the last morning to see our daughter and son-in-law off we were treated to a gorgeous sunrise. Seeing the sunrise over the ocean never grows old for this old gal.
