Soggy Spring Break Camping at South Beach

The weather was definitely wet and stormy! We didn't see any whales at the Whale Watch Center either but a good time was had by all. Ellery and Sydney thought it was great because they got to watch DVDs and had two breakfasts at the Pig and Pancake!

Stephany flies to Omaha to visit the Toomeys

Lots of hugs from the boys and kisses from the dogs plus a Lego marathon were some of the highlights of this trip. Other highlights included watching Heath diving and all three of them skillfully maneuvering their Kindle Fires. Not so good was catching a Toomey cold which took almost four weeks to recover from. I need to toughen up somehow before these grandchildren encounters!
