Day 1: Da Beach!

There are 2 kinds of beach vacations: before kids/after kids. Totally different and never the same after kids! But today we had a milestone moment. We stayed on the beach or at the pool from 9:30 to 3.30 ish. That's huge for my kiddos and we're finally at the point where we all enjoyed our day today. My dad, who NEVER sets foot on the beach, enjoyed most of the day with us! Mainly due to the fact that Mandy brought her dad's large tailgating tent. And Landry Grace even took her nap under the tent. I even got to enjoy the sun for an hour from a beach chair....!!!! Our condo has a pretty neat pool area, complete with lazy river and waterslide that the kiddos are all taking advantage of. What a great day and hope I'm not jinxing the rest of our trip!

SO glad you are all having a wonderful time--there's just nothing like the beach! We always took a dining tent-the prefect answer!

You make me laugh- We haven't braved the beach post-kids except for once when Henry was 2 months old. THAT was already quite different! I'd love to go though and this is encouraging!

Fun!! It looks beautiful, Suzanne. The picture of Landry Grace asleep on her beach towels is too sweet. Wish I was at the beach right now!

I want to look like you when I grow up :) Your kids are gorgeous, but they come by it naturally! We're taking Cala in September, crazy much? I'm thinking she'll nap a lot! And I was thinking the tent idea was a very very good one!
