2014 Beach Trip

We are so lucky that Nana + Papa love the beach as much as we do.  We love our annual trips to 30A with them, and we feel like it's going to be a wonderful family memory for MP2 + NC as the years go on.

Despite a rocky start that included car sickness and more stops along the way than we'd ever care to admit, we have agreed that this was the best beach trip yet!  The house was a perfect layout for our group, and MP2 is old enough that he's just loving all that the beach and pool have to offer.  NC slept great and, since she wasn't yet crawling, was pretty agreeable during the sandy outings.  Not to mention, by a stroke of fate, MP2's best bud was in town for the same weekend...celebrating his big #4 birthday, AND staying not half a mile down the road!  So we got to have a pool date, as well as participate in W's birthday festivities!


 Arrived, and not too worse for the wear!
 Someone can't wait to get to the sand and the water!

 Naps wherever you can get one!
 Friends!




 Happy birthday to W!


 Ice Cream....best beach treat
 None for NC though :)



 Beach bums.



Nana + Papa, thank you so much for a wonderful vacation.  We had a fantastic time!


Trouble....

...and the Kit is on the move as of last weekend.  Her form and distance are already much improved since this video was taken!

The Neverending Quest

...for cute pictures of MP2 & NC together.  I swear, I can get one of them at a time to smile, but getting them both smiling and looking normal is more difficult than photographing wild racoons






That said, I think they are two of the cutest creatures ever to live.  Can't get enough of them.

Hop Hop!

In keeping with my new-found effort to make sure the blog remains somewhat current...here's a post about Easter!  We did an egg hunt in East Nashville and some of Max's good buddies, Max & Vivi, were in attendance as well...making for an extra fun afternoon.






Easter morning found goodies from the bunny, then Nana + Papa came over for a late lunch and to hang out.  It was a great weekend and we enjoyed the warm weather and Easter treats!



Finally, here's the photo we took with the Easter Bunny while in CT visiting Ama + Grandpa.  I thought it came out surprisingly well...all things considering!
