Fun in the Sun

My family went to the beach last week with some of our best friends and it was so much fun. Nate is going out of the country for two weeks and will be missing my family's annual beach trip so he took us down for a little R & R and so he could be with the babe during his first beach trip. It was so much fun to get away with just my man and my boy. And of course Adam and Milli, our faithful friends who put up with our new crazy way of life.

The first time on the beach. 

Adam and Milli- thanks for joining us! 

The first time we took Buggy to the beach he cried. I think it was the combination of the moving water, the sound, and the temperature of the water. So the next day we tried the indoor pool. He liked it a lot better. 

And this is how he let us know that he was ready to get out! 

The next day we tried the beach again and he decided he didn't mind sitting there but he still wasn't a fan of the water. So we brought puffs, juice, and toys and played on our beach blanket in the shade for a little while. 

Little ladies man, he is! 

We took lots of walks on the beach.

 It was seriously so good for my soul just to be with my family. 

Baby feet, Mama feet, Daddy feet

Camden also passed the time by stealing our sun glasses. It was his favorite game. 

Daddy and I didn't feel the same way. 

On the third day, the water was extra still so we eased Cam in and tried to trick him. It worked! 

He got in the water with us and floated for a while. He even fell asleep in the water.

 After lots of playing in the sand and swimming we were ready to come home. 

We had the best time. It was so a blessing to get away and love on my boys without any distractions. 

And to be at the beach, ah-it couldn't have been better.
