Little Ox Goes to the Beach!

Well, our first vacation as a family was a success! Except. . . . I failed to get that traditional family photo of us on the beach. . . I know, unacceptable. You must understand though, that my hands had sunscreen all over them and I had my giant camera with me (should have brought the tiny and accessible camera instead) And by the time all 15 of us made the move to the beach with all our supplies, I was tired!  At least this is how I justify it to myself. .

Here's just a taste. . . .





We went to Gulf Shores with Dusty's family. Ten adults and five children ages 7 and under, four of which are boys. . . . quite a wild bunch.


 This is Pierce. He is almost 3. Check out his sweet tattoo. Yeah, he's bad.


Maddox and Preston. They are only 5 weeks apart and already buds. Papa (Dusty's Dad) calls them Cletus and Roscoe. . . 


Sweet Hayden. She turned 3 on the day we left Gulf Shores. She is having a princess themed birthday party in a week or so, and got her ears pierced while we were away. Hello Kitty earrings, how fun is that! Makes me kind of want a little girl of my own. I said kind of!


Not a family portrait on the beach, but this time it will have to do. 



This was our neighborhood for the week. Nothing but beach houses as far as the eye could see. It was beautiful. I think I could live in one of these permanently.

We had an awesome time on vacation! I feel rested and ready to plan more clay workshops. I'm so excited to see the enthusiasm about the workshops at JoZoara Coffee Shop, as well as the at-home workshops that are coming up!

Thanks for checking in on Little Ox, and I look forward to showing you the latest out of the kiln!
