The beach is always a little crazy... You think beach, you think "relaxation"...until you have kids...and then it's not only the opposite of relaxation, it can actually be way more work than being at home. But, it's worth it... I think :) And it's definitely more fun when you've got a friend in the trenches with you...and a lot of kids to make for fun chaos!
Amber, Max, and Ava came to hang with us at the beach a few weeks ago. We loaded up our car with ALL of us...4 car seats, the 2 of us and SO much stuff. We had to take a picture of how our luggage was packed to make sure we'd be able to get everything back in the car for the way home. We survived the road trip without too many stops and only one bag of goldfish spilled and crushed in the floor.
It's such a blessing to have a friend with kids that are the same ages... It's been sweet to watch Tucker and Max's little friendship grow this past year and hopefully the girls will catch on soon as well :) Gigi was with us for the week too and a HUGE help as always. Enjoy our week in pictures!

Happy girl with Gigi!


Silly to attempt I know...

Okay, so I know we look rough... but it's the only evidence I have that we were there :)

"Don't worry about us... We'll just be laying on the floor hoping the brothers don't step on us"

A few days before we left, Tucker got an ear infection...he was really sick for 12 hours with vomiting and fever. Sweet Max was trying to make him feel better...

And he succeeded when he bought him his own Mickey Mouse!

Ava...seriously the most content, happy baby!

The most popular Gigi...somehow she keeps up with these crazy boys :)

Sun-kissed kiddos, tired mamas...good memories!
