Brigantine Triathlon, Beach, and Ocean City... August 2009

I think we've been at the beach more times this year than ever... and it never gets old!! The girls LOVE every second they are running into the water and playing in the sand!!! We always look forward to the Brigantine Triathlon, as it was our "first ever triathlon"... and that was over 5 years ago. We've done MANY since, but this one is our favorite!!! This was Scott's 5th year and my 4th (I had to skip the race the year I had just had Angela... not evenough recovery and training time!). But as always it was a blast... thanks to Grandmom Reedell and Erin for coming down to "herd the kiddos" during the race!! And as we have done for the past few years, it was GREAT to cross the finish line with our kiddos...


Friday we went to Ocean City (NJ) for some rides and boardwalk time.
The girls LOVED every single ride and we thought the views from the HUGE ferris wheel were breathtaking....
Pictures from the race... both Scott and I did great... and the girls always seem to finish twice....
After the race we showered up and headed to the beach with "aunt Erin" for the afternoon... EXTRA fun!!!
In the evening we headed to Smithville with Aunt Gerry and Grandmom Reedell for some shopping fun. Elyse enjoyed a ride on the carousel (she picked a bunny...) and was all smiles!!
We picked up some wine and cheese and went back for a great evening at Aunt Gerry's house!
(pictures in the collage above!) Sunday was a very "questionable day" weatherwise... it looked like it was going to rain all morning, but we went to the beach for one last time (for this trip)... and of course the girls could care less about the weather, the beach is ALWAYS fun.....
