Scott and I decided last summer that we would love to buy a share of my parent's beach house, if that was possible. With the stress of Scott's CMO position, travel, and a busy life style we thought that this could be the perfect solution. Turns out we were right. We get around 35 days a year. We try and capitalize on all of them. Family time is fantastic, as is time with friends. Here is a glimpse of a few of our trips.
Avonlea is becoming more and more mobile. So it's fun to see her progress each time we visit.
Melt my heart.
Once a year I attend a Woman's Retreat at my church. Look at the view that Chante and I got from our room this year!
Kid free and soaking up some sun!
Back to having kids and family around.....
Multitasking Daddy...
Ready to fly!
One area that I feel I'm a good mom to boys is when dealing with things that crawl and slither. Scott really isn't into picking up critters. I'm not either. But I'm not afraid to. Thus I am the one plunging my hands into foliage and into tide pools.
Who is teething?
She can plank and she can roll. Just not crawl yet...
These two are so darn cute together.
One of our favorite families came to visit, the Suarez Family!!
They were all quiet. This never happens :)
B and Rocco held hands all weekend. It was so cute.
Little Momma!
Valentine's Day!
This is how Niki solved the problem of me forgetting the rings for the bottle nipples....
Tide pools!
Cute girl!
St. Patrick's Day!
Doesn't Avonlea look thrilled.
Boys night
Since she can only roll the beach gets her a bit sand for some reason.
The Larlee's came for what became a very memorable weekend.
6 stitches needed after slamming lip into the tv stand.
But don't worry, after 6 hours and anesthesia he signed his own release papers.
Avielle and Avonlea playing.
After a CRAZY day at the ER this is the perfect way to unwind.
Micheal won Settlers of Catan for the first time in 7 years. Worth documenting!!!!
These two crack me up!!
Vella Vella jelly fish
Guess who can now crawl..... It gets her into trouble a bit.
After 3 months and a few visits to the beach Brayden still has his dissolving stitches in his lip from his accident. They are 5 day dissolving stitches...... But his lip does looks great still.
The Friedman Family joins us!!!!!!
An eel!
He did it and I'm mad.
Seaside Aquarium
She's standing now!!!!
We have had great friends here and love watching our kids grow up here. They are loving all the outside time and I love watching them enjoy the simple things in our busy life.
