Fun in the Sun

Katie started the day in Time Out for demanding a popsicle prior to 7 am. Fortunately for all of us, things improved after that. Katie and Mama hit the beach to chase waves and build sand "castles." Then we headed over to meet our friends at the pool. Big Caroline and Katie had a lot of fun swimming and splashing while Little Caroline took up residence in her own lounge chair under a big umbrella and played with her toys in between dips in the pool. We really enjoyed the sun and were all reminded of the importance of reapplying sunscreen after 3 hours at the pool. :) We got some quick naps in and then dressed the girls in their white beach dresses in an effort to attempt those sought-after beach pictures of perfect children dancing around in their best clothes while the sun sets and the waves crash in the background. I think it's safe to say Katie and Caroline are too little to pull those off. Sand EVERYWHERE. Oh well, maybe in a couple of years...it'll give us an excuse to come back. We met up with all of our friends...at the Japanese Steakhouse again. This really is getting embarrassing - especially since we have now had the same chef 3 times. But Katie LOVES this place and it is good and we all know this is Katie's Vacation. Caroline showed the first signs of Yamato Fatigue this evening so it is doubtful we'll make it back again this trip...
