The Sanibel "Stoop"

I love road trips! Let me clarify...ever since we had a DVD player installed in our car I love road trips. Monday we headed over to Sanibel Island which is off the west coast of Florida with the Becks and the Tolberts. The boys headed over early in the morning to get in some fishing then the girls carpooled over once our kids woke up.

Sanibel is known for it's white sand beaches and the Sanibel "Stoop" because as you look down the beach everyone is bent over (stooping) to pick up the amazing shells that cover the beach.


Here is Brock doing more of a Sanibel Squat!





The Johns went snorkeling and came back with some huge shells and this starfish.







Brock and Ty always have fun together.



Austin and Carson flying a kite. Aus thought he was so cool that he could fly a kite while swimming.


Anyone else tired of seeing my kids in the same rash guards all the time?

DVD players in the car are a dream come true. NEVER get sick of seeing your cute kiddos. I can't believe Brock's hair...it is getting long and thick. Gives me hope for Mason. I want to be on the beach with you.
