Sounds of the sea - #41 to #47

This week's challenge at Shopping our Stash is the sounds of the Sea - doing projects with oceans, seaside and beachy themes, so I thought this would be a good opportunity to whip up a few pages from our last vacation.  I had to get them done in preparation for our next vacation that is coming up in August.  I haven't done a scrapbook page in ages and once I got started I just couldn't stop....play along with us, will you?
