Gavin's Birthday

On Sunday afternoon we went Pittsburgh area to celebrate 2nd cousin Gavin's Birthday. He was 2 years old. The afternoon had perfect weather for an outdoor gathering.

Swim time at Seagrove Beach

The pool at Family Ties was great. For those of us prone to sunburn we had to provide our own shade.

Evening swim.


Grammy and Great Gram liked the evening swim too.


Tommy not liking the gulfshore.


Tommy did enjoy his very own bucket of gulfwater (complete with seaweed) while he had his snack.


Checking the weather was also a past time at Seagrove (the tar ball threat was gone).
The white capped waves were a challenge if you got in the water.

Family Ties at Seagrove Beach Florida

Our family vacation at Seagrove Beach Florida almost mirrors the new movie Eat, Pray, Love; except ours is more like Eat, Swim and Check the Weather.

Great Gram helps Tommy with his pancakes.


Tommy enjoys his entree.
