Beach Trip - Day 1



It's our annual beach trip, and so far so good! After Nanny graciously took our crew to the airport, we had some well behaved children on both flights, thanks kids! There were even two kind passengers on each flight that asked if our kids were seasoned travelers. Nope, they just did great.




And as quickly as we awoke the first morning, we headed out to the pool! Looks like we're ready...




Everyone had a blast swimming and playing in the pool and starting our summer tan.




We even had some superhero protection...




...from Spiderman, who could scale the walls of the pool.




Anna Brooks loved the water with her adorable little beach hat...



...and she even entertained us with a classic Brooksie face:



...and then some post-pool, post-nap hair!



To top it all off, as a family, we all enjoyed a great meal outside. Coincidentally, it was our 11th Wedding Anniversary, hooray! It's amazing how things can change in 11 years. I would not have guessed 11 years ago that I would spend so much time cutting someone else's food. I love it though.

Anna Brooks, welcome to a foretaste of heaven, the Royal Scoop. I'm convinced that every freezer in heaven will be packed with Chocolate Tri-Scrumptious ice cream, what an amazing creation!



Anna B with her baby and her first Royal Scoop, and Carter with his strawberry (pink) ice cream, and me with the aforementioned heaven on earth.
