Last summer hurrah

We took advantage of the reasonably nice weather to head to the boardwalk one last time this year! September is our favorite time of year at the beach - smaller crowds, cooler weather, and free beach access. The girls both had a lot of fun and didn't want to leave!


Ellie playing in the sand


Audrey hated the sand and insisted on sitting in my lap the entire time so that the sand touched no part of her body!




Audrey went on her very first ride! It was so sweet - Ellie kept her arm around her the entire time.










Then Ellie went on a few rides by herself (enough of baby sister tagging along!)


Ellie was so proud of herself on this ride. She and I went on it together last time because she was afraid to use the handle and make it go up. This time she went alone and made her elephant go up and down the entire time. She kept yelling it to us whenever she went around. We told her that now she's ready for Disneyworld!


Ellie played her first game of Skeeball today!


We're sad to see summer go, but we've made the most of this one! Now on to apple picking, pumpkin picking, and Halloween!

Wow, looks like they had a blast! Those pics of Ellie with her arm around Audrey are so adorable! =) She's such an amazing older sister and I can just imagine how in love they are with each other!
