It was a little chilly and cloudy in the morning when we woke up. So we headed out to do what we do best, DONUTS!
We love using Trip Advisor when we're travelling for the insider tips on great places to check out. The Donut Hole was one of those places! Yum Yum Yum
Throughout the week, people couldn't get over how much they all look alike. I can see it in this picture
When we got back to our place we went for a morning walk on the beach to decide what we wanted to do that day. Since it was still a little chilly we decided to head to the Boardwalk to do some souvenir shopping.
Sally had been planning to bring some of her well earned money from taking care of our neighbor's dog, to buy some treasures. She was so sweet in giving Libby some of her money since Libby will often help keep her company when she's playing with Calvin. Sally also mentioned to me that she'd help Emma shop and buy her something since she didn't have any money. She can be so sweet.
However, we had planned to surprise the girls with giving them spending money of their own, they were excited to discover that!
We got a good kick out of the Bald Eagle mask
Emma's turn to fly
Libby rocking it too. Sally was too busy finding treasures
They found what they were looking for. Daddy likes to find a magnet, deck of cards and a postcard to document his trips. Emma found a jar filled with shells and sand that had her name on it
Loving the palm trees

Lunch for Mom! Yum
Then we headed back to do some swimming in the pool. We were thankful for a heated pool as it was still a bit chilly with the wind coming off the ocean. Emma was SO proud to be able to float and swim on her own with her water wings
Sally and Libby were excited to discover our place had noodles for their use
Super Dad, never taking a break to just sit, the entire week!
Some tossing fun

Once the sun fully came out, it was warm enough to head to the beach
Emma wanted to share a treat and bury each other in the sand
The girls thought it was hilarious when they saw Emma burying Mommy...they know how much I hate sand. But this sand is different, it's like flour!
Makin' memories!
We headed in to shower and get ready for dinner...another Tripadvisor Recommendation!
We make a good team!
We checked out Vinny McGuire's Pizza, it was delicious! Teaching the girls the art of Cheers before taking your first sip
His and Hers
This place was a fun atmosphere. See all the dollars hanging on the ceiling? We added one to their collection. They have 2 other locations and each has over a million dollars in hanging dollars!!
Emma was "on fire" during this meal. I think the long travel day the day before and no nap, was starting to settle in. Third one has spunk!
Oh, Emma
Impressed with all the dollars
Our dollar that we added

Fun little walkway to where our car was parked
Daddy noticed "C-Mile" in the lettering above us :)
and then we went home and went to bed and slept soooooo well.
Stay tuned for Day #3, when we surprised the girls with a Dolphin Cruise!
