Rebekah's kite is so fun that even Grandaddy had to try it out.

Poor Taryn. Having to do her online Spanish class while on vacation. Then again, being able to do school AND be at the beach? Awesome!

After full day at the beach, birthday celebration. Bekah likes her cake, I think.

Rebekah loves to fly a kite. For her birthday we let her pick out a new kite from Klig's Kites. She got a simple stunt kite which means it has dual lines for controlling the kite.

Watching the taffy being pulled:

Loved this sign. It reads

This machine is called a KISS WRAP It was purchased new in 1917. The last one produced was in 1939. It cuts off a piece of taffy, places it into a piece of wax paper, then twists the ends. It cuts and wraps 150 pieces of taffy per minute IF IT FEELS LIKE IT

Taking a break from schoolwork. Human knot game:
