Vacation 2010

We had a good time on our annual retreat to Lakewood Campground! I was going to upload pictures but for whatever reason it isn't working so this post will have to do without pictures...sorry! I did put an album on facebook though so if you have a facebook account, you can see them there..haha! As always we enjoyed getting visits from my extended family and I got to see my brother, sisters, parents, some of my nieces and nephews and the Bailey great neices and nephews...it was so much fun! Libbi and the twins came and stayed 3 days with us and we really enjoyed them so much! Michael loved having Connor to pal around with and Sarab Beth had a great time with Lauren and Emily! Libbi made me laugh and I got to ride around in the golf cart (even in the rain) and enjoy talking and talking and talking! Momma and Nathan spent the week with Kim but came and spent several days with us! Daddy and Dibbie came and even brought BoJo to visit with us (Puglsie was really curious about BoJo...haha)! I enjoyed each visit and was happy to have everyone come and make our vacation special again this year. It was a very rough year for me this year on the anniversary of Noah's death and I was very grateful that the Bailey's came to visit and entertain us that day! Sending up balloons for Noah is so important to me and Kim came and brought his favorite smiley face balloons for us to release in his memory. I am thankful for her thoughtfulness and for being able to remember my precious baby on that day that brings so many tears to me. The wonderful ocean breeze and salt air was like a balm to my soul. I am thankful that we get to spend 2 weeks each year at the beach....especially during this time of the year....it is my oasis from the stresses of everyday life and I come home grateful for my wonderful family and for the joy they bring to me!
