New Smyrna Beach

Well, I didn't ever finish my Fall Break Florida vacation, so here goes. We spent our last day in Florida, Saturday, at New Smyrna Beach with Kyle and Jessica and TJ and Sunshine with their two children: Kalin and Lyla. It was a lot of fun. Kyle, TJ, and Eric surfed and taught Alex how to surf too. Alex loved surfing and was able to get up several times. Jessica, Sunshine, and I mostly hung out on the beach while we watched the kids play. They all loved it, and it was a perfect day for it. The weather was beautiful. When TJ came in from surfing, he took many of the pictures below...especially the surfing ones. It took me forever to edit and narrow them down because there were a lot of good ones.

The other Jesikah trying out the boogie board

Eric trying surfing again after many years


This is the first picture of a sequence of Eric and his brother, Kyle, catching a wave.






Oh no, it looks like Kyle is going to run into someone

Yep, he had to stop short before he hit the lovers

Eric is looking back giving Kyle the look, "I went farther than you" or it might be "sorry those people got in your way".

Eric finishing it off while Kyle goes back to catch another




Kyle just hanging out on the surfboard

Eric trying to pull out a "hang loose" sign with his hand while swimming for a wave

This is our nephew, Kalin

Oh I am so jealous of the beach, the sun and the warm weather! It's been so cold here and the snow was horrible...I need to move to Florida! Glad you guys had a great time, though.
