A DAY AT COCOA BEACH WiITH MY SISTER, POLLY, AND HER SON, AARON!

One of my favorite times of year is when my sister, Polly and her son, Aaron come to visit us from Colorado.  They come every summer for a week and we have a great time together just hanging out, visiting and having fun!  

Unfortunately, little did we know, they would arrive during a tropical depression here in Central Florida that has lasted the ENTIRE week.  But that won't stop us!!  We headed out to Cocoa Beach (East Coast) on the 2nd day they arrived and actually had some wonderful sunny hours before the rain started and it was a PERFECT morning!  The kids played and played, we went up to the cafe for lunch, played a little more and headed out just before the storm.  One plus to the weather, the big waves for the boys who wanted to body surf!  The big boys spent the whole time out on their boards!  

Matthew and Cousin, Aaron.   Why did I just take one shot of this and Aaron's eyes are closed?  I should learn to take more than one shot at a time, because it is such a great shot of the boys!  

Hua Hua getting her buckets ready to go down to the water.  Cutie!  

Joshua spent a lot of his time sitting here and making his sand castles!

Brothers

All my kiddos together for just a moment before they went off to do what they like to do!  I wish I would have gotten cousin Aaron in this shot, but he was up at the towel by Polly at this moment.  

Hua Hua looks like she is in surfing position!  

Love this action shot of Joshua running in the water

Sisters  there in the water (of course Christina is STILL texting).  Cousin Aaron heading out with his boogie board.
