Myrtle Beach 2016

We always enjoy our annual Van Wingerden Myrtle Beach Family vacation.  We love the fun on the beach...the sand, the ocean, the snacks, the lemon icee...swimming in the pool, relaxing in the hot tub,  going to the arcade by the beach, & going to dinner each night.  Each year is always a fun time...we sure love being with our VW cousins, uncles, aunts, & Oma.

Brecken & me
Averie & Stephanie...cousins & best friends!
Brecken & Emmersyn logging many, many hours of playing in the sand.

After dinner one night, Daddy & Mommy surprised us with some "carnival" fun.  We bought some tickets and had a blast.

Such a fun beach trip.  We were thankful for many laughs, great weather, and fun memories!
