Sunset Beach 2010

I can’t believe our annual Bolick Family beach trip has already come and gone again!  Why is it that vacation weeks go by so much faster than any other weeks of the year?!  I guess time truly does fly when you’re having fun!  Ella LOVED the beach again this year…sand, water, and all!  I love the beach but this year it was a little less relaxing since I was 7.5 months pregnant!  The weather was beautiful but boy was it HOT!!  The temperature stayed in the high 90s and the heat index one day was 115!!  Ella wanted to stay in the ocean but it was way too hot for me so I found a nice cool  cooler place in the shade.  The rest of the gang took turns playing with Ella.  Aunt Ashley’s sister, Gracie, was a lifesaver and helped keep Ella entertained.  Ella loved playing with her!! 

It’s hard to believe that next year we’ll have another little one crawling around in the sand!
