| Jersey Shore Vacation 07 |
This is the second year we have chosen the Jersey shore to be our family vacation spot. We went down September 4th, for 4 days. Rachel has a friend who's parents own a summer home in Tom's River, NJ. They offered us their home while we were there. We are so grateful to them. It was so nice to come back from the beach and have a nice place. There were even enough rooms and beds for all of us. Unfortunately Zeb, Stacey and Cody had to work and couldn't come. We missed them. The house was situated on a man-made canal for boats to come in off the bay and dock at the house. Emily, Aaron, and Hannah enjoyed feeding the ducks from the dock. Tyler just wanted to catch one. Occasionally the ducks would come up onto the "yard" looking for hand-outs.
There was a 20 minute drive to the beach. We had fun playing in the waves, boogie-boarding, and playing in the sand with the children. Tyler, the youngest (9 months) just loved the water splashing into him. On the way home the exhausted kids would sleep the whole way. That was nice! :) On the last day, we didn't go in the water. We rented two paddleboats. The wind was blowing so strong that we couldn't go anywhere other than the way the wind wanted us to go, but we had fun anyways. Then the kids played on the playground for awhile before we headed home.
