This past week we spent our first sunny vacation at the beach house. We went to Obsession earlier in the year but we were not able to enjoy to true beauty of the beach because it was still chilly and windy out. We were blessed with beautiful weather. Preston's mom came with us and we invited my best friend, Jessica and her husband, Rick to join us as well. Jessica and Rick were a wonderful help with the twins since Jessica has twins herself. Preston's mom helped to make our vacation even better by keeping Gracie and Bailey in the morning time so we could enjoy sleeping in which makes any vacation great! Preston and I were also able to enjoy a beautiful sunset dinner to celebrate our 5 year anniversary.
Preston and I learned quickly that vacations will never be the same now that we have Gracie and Bailey. We used to just lay out in the sun all day and enjoy evening cocktails and dinners out. Now our vacations look a little different....they take tons of organizing to pack everything, bottles still have to be washed, laundry needs to be done daily, babies still wake up in the middle of the night trying to adjust to a new setting, and we learned it is much easier to do take out and go to bed at about 9! With all this being said I would not trade our new vacations for anything! It is so fun watching Gracie and Bailey discover God's beautiful creations. I loved seeing Bailey watch seagulls flying by for the first time and hearing Gracie giggle at the crashing waves was priceless.
