Dedicated: Beach Bums

This past week my family enjoyed a week at the beach! It was so much fun!! We haven't all been together since Christmas, so all the little kids have changed so much, and it was great to have them all together!

We had a house walking distance from the beach and a community pool right outside the front door, which was great with two babies and 3 year old!

We would get up early (as babies don't really understand sleeping in while on vacation yet), play while enjoying coffee (aka go-go juice for mommy and daddy) and breakfast, babies take morning naps (mama's enjoy some reading time), go to the beach for a while, come back to the house for lunch and afternoon siestas for everyone, go to the pool for a while, hang out before dinner, enjoy wonderfully cooked dinners around a big table, play time before babies go to bed, bedtime for kiddos, then play fun games before we all turn in!

It was so cute to watch Hudson interact with Henry and Eliza. Henry's 3 and Eliza is 8 months (2 months younger than Hudson), so between the three of them, there wasn't ever a dull (or quiet) moment in the house. Sweet Eliza certainly held her own with these two "all-boy" boys!

I enjoyed getting to know my precious niece and nephew better, as well as spend time quality time with my sisters and parents. We don't really get to spend a lot of time together as a family, and with these kids growing up so fast, it seems like each time we see them, they're completely different little people. We value and hold these times close to our hearts.

Ready for an 8 hour drive!
