We love going to the beach. We don’t have lots of places to go and have fun. If we stay at home on a “family day”, our kids still have to share Steve with the long line of people who will come to talk to him. So, a day at the beach is perfect for us. We try to go once a month with our friends, the Bryants. Our kids love the day to be together and we adults love the chance to catch up on what’s been happening with each other. They live in another village about an hour away and our lives seem so busy all the time that we rarely get a chance to talk.
Our kids love exploring the rocks, searching for shells and other creatures. They love swimming, playing football on the beach, and digging in the sand. We love to have a yummy lunch prepared by someone else (and cleaned up by someone else). We love long walks down the beach and beautiful sunsets on the beach. We have had wonderful, relaxing days every time – makes it easy to plan for the next getaway!

Posted by Steve and Casey Cretsinger on Sunday, November 8th, 2009It came and went so fast that it seems like a blur. One minute we were anxiously waiting to see if they could get into the country and the next minute we were saying goodbye. My parents trip was what we had been waiting 16 months for and then like the blink of an eye – it was already over. I’ve been wanting to write about their trip and give all the details of the fastest week we’ve ever had. But, it sometimes I honestly think “were they ever really here?”. It just went too fast! How did I write about all their new experiences without writing a book? I’ll try to keep this somewhat short, but you might want to sit down and take minute to read all this! (more…)
