Sharp Family Reunion

Chris, Wendy, and I just returned from a fun-filled week at the beach with the massive Sharp family. We had Grandma and Grandpa Sharp, 6 kids, 6 fabulous in-laws, and 19 grandkids all under the same roof for a non-stop party all week. Here are some of the pictures from our trip, in random order.

The younger girls all wore their matching dresses to church, even though some of them weren't in the mood for pictures Sunday morning.
We have been working with to sit up. She has had no interest and usually arches her back until she is laying down. But, this week, she realized she could see all of the action better from sitting position so decided to master sitting up. She was watching the kids do relay races with Grandma.
Our little water girl loves the beach! The waves were pretty big, so she just liked to watch the waves and kids from the shore. She got a really bad cold during the trip, so she was on the mend in this picture. But, she was still so happy to be outside.

One evening, we went to a nearby park to get some wiggles out. Here I am with Brittany, Emily, and Wendy.
Chris had a blast snorkling, swimming, and body surfing with the "grown-up" boys.

Little Rachel was my buddy! She was always excited to see me, especially if my lap was available.
Wendy is REALLY close to crawling. She now has the one arm scoot mastered.
Wendy loved being in the pool! There were usually many other kids in the pool, but she wasn't bothered at all by the unexpected splashes she received.
The siblings and the two Wendys. Me, Grandma Wendy, Angie, Emily, Tami, Brittany, Adam, and baby Wendy.
The clouds were coming in, but we still had one happy baby!
Game Night with the adults.....every night after the kids were asleep. So much fun!
Someone's naptime....

Grandma was so nice to hold baby Wendy so Chris and I could catch some waves on the boogie boards.

Wendy was trying to be like her cousin Rachel and walk around.
Hanging out with Uncle Adam and Aunt Brittany during the relay races.
Tricks with Uncle Adam were a hit!!
Wendy was adored by the older cousins like Trevor.
More pictures of the matching girls.

Busy busy girl
Wendy didn't participate in the pyramid this year. But, it was super cute!
Hanging out with Aunt Angie. Still no teeth!
We had such a great trip! We miss you all and can't wait to see you again soon!
