The beach is calling.......
The "anticipation"
of our family beach trips may be THE most
fun part of the entire experience.....
I pretty much have lists in my mind of what
to bring since we have loved this vacation for so many years.
We reserved our beach rental house a year ago, so the planning
has been over a year in the making....

ReplyDeleteYou are going to have so much fun on your family beach trip!! The planning is half the fun, isn't it? We've had a few of those trips ourselves over the years, and they are great for making memories. That creamy lemon dip sounds wonderful, and I love your pretty maxi dress. :)
I enjoyed your post today, Betsy, and have a wonderful week!
