FIRST BEACH TRIP!

THIS SUMMER AHNNA LEIGH EXPERIENCED THE OCEAN FOR THE FIRST TIME. SINCE ZACH'S MOM AND STEPDAD HAVE A BEACH HOUSE SHE HAS BEEN THERE PLENTY, BUT IT WAS WAY TO COLD TO SPEND TIME ON THE BEACH. SHE DIDN'T MIND THE SAND AND SHE LOVED THE WATER, BUT WHEN THE WAVES COVERED HER FEET AND SHE COULDN'T SEE THEM, SHE WAS NOT VERY HAPPY. A WEEK AFTER WE LEFT A 7 YEAR OLD BOY WAS BITTEN BY A SHARK AT THE EXACT SAME PLACE WE HAD BEEN! ALL I CAN SAY IS I HOPE SHE LIKED THE OCEAN BECAUSE SHE'S NOT GETTING BACK IN IF I CAN HELP IT. NOW, LET ME EXPLAIN THE PUPPY DOG PICTURE. THE SECOND NIGHT WE WERE AT THE BEACH WE WENT SHOPPING. MY PARENTS, SISTER, AND I TOOK AHNNA LEIGH INTO THE DISNEY STORE WHILE ZACH AND MY SISTER'S FIANCE WENT TO GET THE CAR. SHE WAS SLEEPY AND CRANKY AND HER AUNT ERIN GAVE HER A PUPPY TO MAKE HER HAPPY. SHE SAID, "WOOF!" AND ROCKED THE PUPPY BACK AND FORTH. ERIN SAID, "YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO GET HERE THAT RIGHT?" SO I SAID I WOULD GET IT. WELL, MY DAD POINTED OUT THE STUFFED ANIMALS WERE 2 FOR $20 OR 1 FOR $15. SO, BARGAIN SHOPPER THAT I AM, I HAD TO FIND HER ANOTHER ONE. WE TRIED TO GET HER TO TAKE PLUTO, MAREI FROM THE ARISTOCATS, THUMPER, MICKEY MOUSE AND EVEN MULAN, BUT NO! MY CHILD WANTED TWIN DALMATION PUPPIES. SO, 2 DOWN 99 TO GO. (GET IT? 2+99=101, 101 DALMATIONS! HA HA!) IT WAS A GREAT TRIP! CAN'T WAIT TO POST FOR OUR NEXT TRIP WHICH IS TO DISNEY WORLD RIGHT BEFORE AHNNA LEIGH'S SECOND BIRTHDAY! SO IF I DON'T POST UNTIL THEN I'LL TALK TO YA'LL LATER!
