Jeff, TJ , and I were excited to get a week away at the beach for a little family relaxation. Somehow Ekiah joined in the trip! We were actually very happy to get to take Ekiah on our family vacation this year. We went to my St. Augustine, Florida for a week. While we were there the boys and Jeff got in plenty of fishing.
