Fun in the Sun ... post 2!

We are enjoying the Florida weather tremendously!!!  It's been warm, sunny and sandy!  Going to the beach is a highlight for all of us!  Mike is also doing some golfing.  He keeps getting texts from friends that also are enjoying the south for a vacation, inviting him to golf.
 
This was the other day when Matthew ate a snow cones on the beach.  (I can't believe I am writing 'snow' on this post.  :)  )  Ashlyn ate a push up Popsicle.
 Hadassah is practicing her flips on the sand.  She pretty good too!

I wish I could say that Ashlyn is having a blast.  The truth really is that she is fighting a flu/bug/earache/stomach ... something???  Since Monday, she has been well/not well.  She has been laying on the couch and then plays some.  She's been running a fever off and on.  She complained of a stomach ache the other morning and threw up once after eating cereal.  I stayed home with her that day while Hadassah beached with Lena and while the guys fished.  She was not feeling well in the morning but by afternoon, she joined me in the sun and played with her kitchen toys in some water.  Last night, she was up a lot complaining of a earache and again a fever.  She refuses to take any kind of meds and so we just pray and wait for the fever to break.  Please pray for her today as she sleeps, fights off this sickness and hopefully get well!!!  Caring for sick kids is never fun ... but especially not on vacation!  Where the sun is warm and inviting.  When the tempts are to be in the 80's today!  I hope she is well soon and that she can have some sun fun!!!

Spending time as a family is so wonderful!!!  I am blessed!!!
