Hepper Family Reunion

In early July we spent time on vacation with nearly all of the Hepper Family in Ocean City, New Jersey. While we were there, we celebrated Great-Grandma Hepper's 90th birthday! We all had a blast! It was nice to get away and enjoy some down time with the family.

Margaret and the beach

Caroline's first day on the beach.

They couldn't be bothered to put on swimsuits for their first dip in the ocean.

Margaret and Julia were big fans too.

Thankfully, this is the closest any of us came to a shark encounter.
