Good Day, Monk Shine!

So we just spent two wonderful beach filled weeks with Howard and Bucket down in Jacksonville Fla! Boy it was fun!!!



We spent all our time in swimmy suits and at the beach. Jay was working as a guest spot at A Fu Kein Good Tattoo off of Normandy while we were relaxing. I guess it was a bit of a sacrifice to see us having all that fun, but he loves his jobbie so much, I don't think he could complain.




As you can see here, Mini had her own little beachy island set up. She wore her bathing suit more as a fashion statement than anything else... Although we are all sporting some little tan lines.





As usual Monkey was trying to make a great escape into the wide world beyond. Go figure!!

I mentioned earlier in this blog that Howard had just gotten engaged! (Yayyyyy!!) Here is her hunky husband to be! I have to say that they dealt very well with the full Evans 5 invading them. They are bigger folks than I.

It was just so beautiful there.

While we were there Mini was practicing a lot of her new skills. Rolling over, coordinated kicking, bottle holding. Really the whole 5 month old gamut!

Monk learned where her ears were, her belly button, and how to pirate stuff off the table. Hahah! She is so much like me.

You can tell from the picture below that somebody is dreaming of something totally awesome. I wonder what it is...?

This is a pretty cool shot of the whole family, with my new hair cut and 4 out of 5 paying any attention. Considering we tried this shot 6 times or so, I'd say the percentage ain't bad.

Lastly a few less than candid smiles...

P.S. Coming soon to a Monkey near you, Molars, and Aunt Peggy and Uncle Wes!
