The Roberts Family: SEASIDE 2010

I apologize to my sisters that I haven't created a blog post in over 3 months ... it's probably been longer. You know the crazy my life has endured these past months. But now I feel strong and healthy again and life is getting back to being fun. There is so much to update about, but I figured there will just have to be numerous back posting, so bear with me.

But the funnest thing we've done lately was going to Seaside with my parents, sisters, bro-in-law, and some aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents.

Here's Elli in her car seat ready to go, can you see her excitement?

Here's Elli up on Daddy's shoulders. And there's actually a little blue sky! It was a rare sight while we were there.

I love this expression. The water was COOLLLLDDD!!!

Andrea and UNCLE DAVE!!! We were so happy to see them. They live in CA and it's been months. They brought Elli a talking Elmo doll for her birthday so they easily won a place in her heart :)

Tossin' the ball around on the beach on a during a cloudy morning beach walk:

Elli wanting to join the fun:

This is Elli's Lifeguard sweatshirt that she got last year. It fit a little better this year.

Her favorite person to hold hands with:

David continues to wear this ridiculous "i (heart) hot moms" t-shirt:

I love this picture:

And of course here's our sand castle - naturally it had to be bigger than anyone else's on the beach. But it just so happened to be the only one on the beach that day. But still - it was the biggest!

Elli did well as making sure nothing dried out:

Elli is standing in the moat but you can see the castle is twice her size. We had a lot of visitors come over to watch and comment. Even the police SUV patrolling by stopped and complimented our masterpiece.
