Day 1

When we got there we hit the beach and the docks, The Bartsch crew came up a day late cuz Darin had his 20 year High School Reunion to attend, so the first day was just getting settled and having some fun.

Riley Lost Another Tooth!

Ok, so tomorrow will begin the blogging of our most recent trip, so be warned...wayyyyyy to many photos of the beach and the kids and fish, turtles and bobbers...But in the meantime...we came home today to the Ice Cream truck and Riley took one bite of her solid ice cream bar and lost the top front tooth that has been wiggly for MONTHS!
