Myrtle Beach 2011

We spent last week in Myrtle Beach for Adam's grandparent's 50th wedding anniversary. We had such a great week with family, enjoying laughs and making memories! It was so awesome seeing Ella Jae enjoy the sand and ocean. We took E to Hilton Head Island last year when she was 4 mths old and we put her little toes in the ocean and she was expressionless. During our trip to Myrtle it was the first time we put her little toes back in the ocean for the first time this year and again she was expressionless ha! The first part of the week she kept saying "uh uh" and would hold out her hand for me to wipe the sand off ha! She didn't like it at first but by the end of the week she was covered from head to toe in sand! She also began to love the water and would say "wee" when we would play in the ocean with her. It was such a joy to watch her play in the sand and pick it up and watch it trickle through her little fingers, to watch her keep her balance across the rippled uneven beach sand, and to watch her make friends in the pool and push my hands away when I would try to guide her and just in case she fell. Stinker!

Ella Jae experience many firsts on her first beach trip of 2011. She enjoyed a sucker, a juice box, and tuna salad. She also started saying a few sentences!!! OMG...she is only 15 mths...is that normal ha! She started saying "I see you!" "I'm gonna get you!" "Good girl!" And "I love you!" See even flirted with a llittle guy that she met at Broadway at the Beach named Maddox ha!

Now to the pictures of our fun filled week at Myrtle Beach 2011..............
