"Never go on trips with anyone you do not love."
-Ernest Hemingway
We traveled to Freeport this weekend and I wish we were able to make the journey under better circumstances. Great Grandma Doodle passed away last week so we packed up the kids and headed to the coast for the funeral. They’re still too young to fully understand what it means, Ashlyn understands the general concept but I don’t know if she comprehends the finality of it yet. We’ll miss you Doodle.
No trip to Freeport would be complete without a visit to the beach and it turned out to be pretty good weather for it. The kids had fun running in and out of the water, writing on the sand, and feeding the seagulls. James was having so much fun he decided it would be better to bring his potty to the water instead of taking a break to find a restroom.
Back at Aunt Elaine’s the family gathered one more time to eat and be with each other. A fire was started when it got dark and the kids were able to roast a few marshmallows.
I’ll end this one with a picture that needs little explanation, it’s just two sisters having fun together.
