vacation - the last part

 After the trip to Andalusia, we were at the beach for a few more days - and Lydia continued to really love to look at the water, look for birds, and listen to the new sounds.

We continued to have wonderful meals - and Lydia continued to eat her weight in fish.

Eden continued to be our little fish, not being able to get enough waves and trips to the sandbar.

The last night everyone was together, we had a round of family picture time ...

... and Eden took her turn at the camera, too ...

Just so we could document the change ... before ...

... and after ... goodbye kitty-kitty paci!

Here is what our view looked like from the porch of the house ... marvelous!

... and our view of Lydia, who loved being held by her Nona.

This is what Eden looked like most of the time (sometimes the tube was missing, but you get the idea).

And when we could get her out of the water for a snack, she chilled out under the umbreallas with the rest of us enjoying carrots, crackers, and fruit.

Lydia did not got down much - but she loved to walk around and show off her mad skills inside.

Which included eating lemons ... yum!

And Eden did spend some time out of the sun and water - making her masterpieces with the help of her Aunt Beverly. Thanks Beverly for all the great art supplies!

We'll miss the beach but are glad to have been able to spend lots of time with family. Until next time ...
