Week-end with the Andersen children

We are enjoying a lovely weekend with Tom and Becky's children. Isn't that front porch just the ideal place for visiting?

You can see where we are parked right here next to the garage. It's a perfect spot.

As it turns out it was sand castle building weekend at the beach so we went down with all the kids and checked things out.

I believe this was the one that won the contest.

We're missing Holly




This is Izabella, she is Jake and Christine's daughter. What a cute girl and energy like the ever ready battery.

Here we have Jacob who became Nicky's good buddy. Nicky just liked to hang with Jacob and Jacob was doing a great job of playing ball with him. Jacob is Jake and Christine's son.

Here's Jake and Christine--two really great young adults. As you can see, Christine has Jake well trained. These two are the parents of Jacob, Izabella and Holly. Holly was gone this week end so we did not get to see her this trip. Christine is Tom and Becky's daughter.

This is Avery. Such energy defies definition. She is on the go constantly and I believe her parents must sigh a sigh of relief when she finally goes to sleep. Just too cute for words.

This is Ella. What a princess!! She was very afraid of Nicky when she first arrived and by the time we left she had conquered her fear and became Nicky's buddy. Good for you Ella!!

Above are Mike and Megan the parents of Ella and Avery. Mike is Tom and Becky's son.

Izabella and Avery are just the best of friends and it was just so much fun watching them play together.
