Sunday, Masters Tournament

We have had a fun, Masters filled day!
What an exciting tournament! It looks so beautiful in Augusta! I can't imagine what it would be like to witness something so big and beautiful. I am grateful that Philly has been able to go to the Masters many times with Ron and Becky Snapp!
Thanks for letting Phil be a part of it Ron and Becky!!!

Daddy Is Home!

We are so excited that daddy is home from Augusta!
We missed him so much! Yippeeee!

Richason Family Vaction 2013, The End

Thursday Night
Watching the IU game.
No joke, our baby loves TV. We have to limit his screen time.
His feet got to moving with excitement and he lost focus of the TV.
He really loves his feet!
Still looking at his feet.
Hanging out with family at Jeanie's condo.

Snow angles, dirt angles, whatever they were at this moment. Making more memories!

The best!


Friday, Sawyer played in the sand. He kind of likes it.

Amaya did the normal thing...read a book. I love my book worm. And with her milky skin that was a wise choice.

Philly popping in for a pic with his mom and Saw.
I love this picture so very much! Dan and Sue.
"Ain't life grand?" I really don't know what Thomas was saying here but, I imagine it was hilarious  This kid is funny I tell.
Jack on the other hand is a man of chosen words. I asked him if was always so quite and he shook his head yes. Then I asked if he had anything to say and he shook his head no. BlaHahhaa! That alone is comical.
My boys. Growing to quickly.
Family beach time.
This year the kids made a couch and chairs. To cool! Oh, with cup holders too.
One last nap grandma before we say goodbye to Destin until next year.
We got some great pictures of Emily taking care of our littlest fellows.


And of Emily jumping around with Thomas.

How fun!

Chelsea and Emily sunbathing.
The family.
We all want to make this trip every year but, circumstances sometimes prohibit the entire crew from coming. We missed Eric, Ben, and Casey this year. Each person adds something special to the family. Therefore, when one is absent from this trip, there is an emptiness.

This is what we see when we look at Sawyer most of the time these days....his tongue sticking out at us! The good news is that he seems to do this when he is happy. Crazy kid.
It took me at least 20 minutes to get this booger to sleep. I finally laid him down, he was limp as could be. But to my surprise, Giana said, "Sawyer is smiling." and guess what?
He sure was.
"ALIGHT... I found'em. I've been keeping an eye out for em all day and they finally show up! I can't wait, want to taste them, a little closer now...."
"...where did those wiggly things go?
Wooohoooo, there's my Octapirate! I'm gonna get him!"
"You're had Octaman!
 Sweet Jesus, how did I get in this position? Is that what it takes to get what I want?
( First day rolling over.)
"I'm gonna get ya...I'm gonna get ya...."
"What? That's what my mommy says to me all the time."



"Told ya I'd get'em."


"Now that I gotcha...."
"I'll start with the legs. One down, seven left to go."
"I think I said this before, my tongue helps me think."
"Tell me the truth... do I look chubby? I can take it, be honest."
"Let me see that camera for a sec."
"Thanks, I just wanted to take a selfy...popular thing to do these days.
Yep, just as I thought....
....a picture is worth a thousand words.
 Oh well, here in a few months I'll just walk it off."

Here is to a wonderful vacation filled with wonderful people and fabulous memories,
Jen
