Life Lately: The Beach

If you happened to miss my constant posting throughout social media (in which case consider yourself lucky, because I was quite obnoxious) then you might not know that I spent my last week on vacation at the lovely beaches in Ocean City, New Jersey. My family is lucky enough to spend a week or two there each summer at my grandparent's beach house, and the town is truly like a second home to me.

We ended up being lucky enough to get nearly perfect weather on the trip, so we spent a ton of time playing games and (in my case) reading on the beach. It was so relaxing and wonderful, and I'm getting nostalgic talking about it because I just want to go back. My one and only regret is that I really didn't use my camera too much, mostly because I didn't want to take the chance of getting sand in it. I managed to snap quite a few shots with my iPhone, but I truly regret that I didn't take some video on my camera for a possible vlog (or, more regrettably, just to have the memories on film). 

Just for reference (in case you're curious) pictured above, from left to right, is my brother Ryan, my brother Dylan's girlfriend Brianna, my brother Dylan, me, my boyfriend Jake (the weirdo wearing sneakers at the beach), my brother Logan and Ryan's friend Alex. The main takeaway from the picture is that I am the shortest person alive. And that I have a lot of brothers.

There were so many highlights to the trip, from a day trip to Atlantic City to the many wonderful games of Kan Jam we played on the beach. I was so happy to spend the week with my family, and I'm already looking forward to going back next year.
