I have so many more pics of the beach I want to put up...but we hit the ground running when we got back.  Actually, Bruce hit the operating table and then the ground with a crutch (or a staff, as Caleb calls it).  Minor surgery with 6 week recovery...and he is doing great!  His doctor is a Christian and what a sweet sweet time as he asked if he could pray for us and the surgery before he took Bruce back!!  Caleb's a good helper and we wouldn't have survived if Aunt Dana hadn't come to help!  As always, God is so good and faithful and gives us His strength as we need it!  

 So THIS is the beach!

 Wave jumping was a favorite!

 Found lots of cool shells!

 Kite flying on the dunes with dad.

Dinner at sunset...on a pirate ship....

everyone was happy!  =)

 Aahhh, fun in Meadow Bridge....

 cows...very exciting!

 and Brooklyn...your the best dog.

 Uncle Bruce found a nephew of like humor....I think we are in trouble!

What a day with family!  Didn't even make it to the interstate!  =)

Dad and mom left Caleb with friends for the weekend

and came back to Iron Man!  =)   

Fun with the boys at friend's house...

hoping these boys might be lifetime friends!!

 The pitch...

 (can you see the ball?)

.....was it a home run or strike?  

Every so often now I hear, "I miss Grandma".  

 I know, son, I miss her too!  

Love ya, mom!  Thanks for all the cuddles!
