You can't beat the beach!

We spent lots of laughs and shivers at the beach which was a watermelon seed spit distance away from our front door....Here's mom livin' it up running down the hill to catch some waves with Sammy. Right, mom?It doesn't get much more studdly than this: Or this:Or this: Holly and the girls were having the time of their lives, despite the 50 degree weather and frigid water. There was a REASON we didn't put their swimsuits on....but alas, they're children.Toothless Nicole! Despite being on vacation, the tooth fairy tracked her down! Isn't she sweet?Lukas making the trek up Cape Kiwanda. I was close behind--with Sammy on my back! Phew, that was a hard trek!
There's more than one way to get down, as Dan demonstrates:


No matter how hard they tried to stay dry, the waves eventually caught up with them. :)This is Bernard Braceface with some plaque in his teeth. Mauery's are a dangerous bunch of creative minds....My mom was entering this photo to her orthodontist for a chance to win an ipod. Good luck, brace face! The boys chummin' it up...
Here's my fabulous siblings! Can't help but love em! Thanks Timothy, Vernon, Mary, Nancy, and Michael (and all your rad families) for making reunions something to look forward to! Can't wait til next year!!!The end.

Oh my goodness, I can't even see the screen and my face is a soggy mess. I just can't stop crying. I'm just going to cut and paste your blog onto mine. I love you sister!
