Florida



Two weeks ago we traveled to Florida with Brian's side of the family. All 18 of us stayed in a beach house together and had a great time! We went in honor of Brian's parent's 50th wedding anniversary. The long car ride proved to be a little challenging for Aiden who was not happy about being in the car for that amount of time. (Michael and Logan did great and loved watching Disney movies while we were driving). None the less we finally made it to the beach house and it was well worth the wait. The house was amazing and a great place for us to stay. We spent most of our mornings at the beach and afternoons at the pool. The group included 10 kids and 8 adults. All of the older kids were a huge help with Michael, Logan, and Aiden. I felt like I had 7 full time babysitters all week! In the afternoons the boys were so worn out from the beach that I got to spend my afternoons lounging at the pool while they took a nap. In the evenings we had nice dinners, played games, and drank wine on the porch. On our last night there, Brian and I put the boys to bed and went out for a great dinner at one of our favorite Seaside restaurants and did a little shopping. It was such a fun week and we loved every minute of it! Along with the pictures below is a slide show to view more pictures from the week.

Renee,
I sneak a a peek at your blog every once in a while to see how big your kiddos are getting. I just had to comment on your vacation spot b/c it's our spot of choice too! We rent a house in Watercolor- the last one in April was right across the street from Camp Watercolor. Isn't that area awesome?! Andrew and Noah have been with us 5 times now starting when they were 6 months, and they do fabulous on the trip there and back b/c they look so forward to getting there! I'm glad you had so much fun. It made me excited for our trip in November. April and November- that's when we go. Miss seeing you at twins club, but I work on Monday nights.
