no I do not pose him for these photos he is just that crazy. maybe I should use it as his portrait it just shouts his character
we went to visit two of our favorite people at our favorite beaches. Chris warmly welcomed us with boiled
craw fish. These two loved them
bonus 3 more of our friends came to stay at Miss J's too
this is a very
common site, B throwing G in or the other way around, over and over
we decided to come to
Destin during an actual beach month since we usually are there when we are the only fools in the water.
Rho played puppies with the kids where they would do tricks and she would throw them "doggy treats" aka gummy bears. Mei, smart girl she is, would not be involved in the doggy play and ended up being the dog trainer telling the "puppies" what trick she wanted to see next. As you can imagine this is not a custom the Rill house hold will be picking up as
generally we are NOT dog lovers, sorry Rho.
as you look at this beautiful white beach it is a reminder that God makes such wonderful gifts for us and man is so good a making things very ugly... thankfully we never saw the oil hit the beach
the
boys spent a lot of time on the courts. God bless them because it was HOT in the 90s with the
Florida humidity. my boys put the tennis lessons Phil gave them to great use, he would have been very proud of them.
when in
Destin Pamapano joes is a must for us. Chris says he never eats here unless
company is here. We told him it's the same for us and
Giordano's at home. For the pic below- I bet this was another first. we
ordered pizza to the pool and got noodles for Mei the delivery had no plates, napkins or utensils included so the best we could come up with was a sand toy, washed up and good luck. she thought it was
hilarious and well it was.
the waves were really good for boogie boarding the kids rodes waves
hundreds of times I am sure
this was after a hot day at the beach and boy did that ice cream taste like a piece of heaven on a spoon
I took this picture from about say 18 ft away so he wasn't even looking at me really. funny how in this "quiet" picture you can still see the
mischief in his eyes
now you may be sick of seeing these traditional pictures of our but look again if you notice our #5 is jumping in 5ft water with no life jacket on, not bad progress from a girl who had never even seen a pool 10 months ago
fun on
inter coastal water.
Gator boys
one last dinner together. If the sun was still up you would see the gulf out that window.
this was the night of the black hawks final game so the boys took turns running to a
tv to keep up on the score and planned the ride home properly
and here is where we were when
chicago made history it was kind of sweet they weren't at home either
Rho and the kids left
fri am. This is our last night there we went to a concert in the park with miss J and grandma while the big boys and
chris watched the basketball game. It was right up our alley a band, playing oldies so we knew
everyone, food friends and the kids even got out dancing with miss
janet. when we got there Mei said "" I always wanted to see one of these" meaning a band I guess
shawn dave and frank are a real band in her mind it's just her dad and his friends. anyway I was happy to be able to check that off her things to see list
miss J has beautiful property with
wonderful gardens and she loves to take care of them. so we took the kids to pick out thank you plants and they spent the morning before we left planting and doing yard work it was the perfect ending. they all adore her so much that even pulling weeds with her is great
we love miss
janet so much she has become a part of our family and the more time we spend with her the more and more she reminds me of my mom. During this trip I had the thought, maybe God brought the
Rapps in to our lives so my babies could have someone like my mom the grandma they lost way to soon, to love, play, get dirty with and hug just like they surely would have if she was still here with us. thanks God I needed this
when I said "
ok now
chris' turn they ran over jumping on him and hugging him after about 7 pictures I finally got one where you can see
their faces. Thank you guys for opening your home and lives to us you know how much we love you guys and we had a great time as always!
