Beach Trip 2009

It's amazing that almost 21 years ago Laurn and I met each other on this very beach. The Lord has really blessed us.





The whole Koch side of the family. Tony and Rebecca and kids Anthony Jr., Trinh, Hung. Laurn's oldest sister Tereasa's daughter Casandra. Grandma Koch, Aunt Cindy, Laurn, Leslie, Caitlin, Jessica, Felicity, Marcus, Alainna, Levi, Jacob.
This was taken at our favorite beach, Hug Point.


We left at about 6:30 am and stopped at Camp 18 for breakfast. The kids and I went through all the ash trays in our cars and through Laurn's night stand and pockets and came up with $160 in change. This was our beach spending money. Laurn's Mom and Cindy gave us a gift certificate that more than paid for our ocean front 2 bedroom with a kitchen room and also gave us 2 meals at Moe's restaurant. Thanks Mom and Cindy for the great time!



The tables are huge. I need one in my house. It's actually wide enough to have plates AND food on them at the same time. The kids had fun playing games while they were waiting for their HUGE cinnamon rolls.



This is what is called "an Aunt Cindy bite"




Grandma Koch and Alainna snuggle to keep warm.



Aunt Cindy and Marcus having a blast as usual.


Levi just loves Jacob. Jacob loves saying cheese for the camera

Jacob really enjoyed is first time playing in the sand until he licked the shovel.


Alainna enjoyed swimming in her new swimsuit


Jacob and Grandma Koch

What?

Oh, I see! Grandpa found Jacob and unlike many peoples response he thought it was cute and took some pictures. Jacob loves toilet paper. It could have been worse. He could have put it all away for us, IN THE TOILET. Thank you Jacob.

Don't the kids look excited about shopping, AGAIN?

Laurn's mom bought HIM this viking hat. I promised not to post a picture of him with it on (although we have several REALLY GOOD ones. You will have to marry into the family to see them) I knew Levi would not mind.

Me and my sweet Caitlin. I had to drag her away from taking pictures of the sunset.

Caitlin got some really great pictures and we got some really funny pictures of her doing it as well. (again I promised not to post those, you will have to marry into the family for those as well)


My parents came with us on this trip. It was fun to spend time with them.


Grandma loves the kids.
