I Believe In the Sand Beneath My Toes, The Beach Gives a Feeling

 Today was just one of those days that was perfect in every way.  Mom and I headed to the beach, and I really wasn't expecting to see anyone down there.  When we first arrived, Patty was there and then slowly everyone came down.  And I'm not just talking about a few people, but my Milford family all arrived and I was so happy.


I don't think we have all been together at the beach since we were all little.  We all live such busy lives and when we can get together  it really is a special treat.  The beach and summer has always been a special time as I have stated time and time again, but today was especially nice.  The weather was beautiful with the sun shining the whole time and a light breeze to never make it too hot.  In fact, Katelyn and I had to put towels over ourselves because we were cold.


It's hard to describe the pure joy I get with spending time with my Milford family.  We all have different lives but we are always there for each other.  Kate said it best today, "Top ten beach day."  


I become the best person I am when I'm with them.  I become the real me when I'm at the beach.  And if you are lucky enough, you will be able to see it.  My Milford family gets to see it every time I'm with them.  And I dare anyone to go to a gathering of these wonderful women and not crack up with laughter.  Seriously, not possible.


P.S. Ricky was extremely missed on this epic day.  Can't wait for our bar crawl, and other fun parties we have planned for the rest of July.
