Blair hearts the beach!!

We took Blair to the beach this past week for the first time, and thank God she loved it! We went down to Seacrest Beach with the Driskell's and the McGrath's, and had a very relaxing vacation. The weather was VERY sunny and HOT. Unfortunately, Blair's lily white skin could only handle it for about an hour each day, but she loved every minute of it! 

We also got to celebrate Felix's very first Father's day while we were down there. We loaded everyone up and went to an early dinner at Acme to celebrate. I did get to snap one or two pics just before Blair decided she would have a die-doe at the table and ruin everyone's evening. 

On one of the cooler nights we decided we would take a stab at getting some beach pictures of the girls. Luckily, it was a cloudy evening, and it spared us from the heat, but we were NOT spared from the wind. See for yourself...

But, we did manage to get a few good ones...

Luckily, Felix fixed us this for dinner that night, so we weren't too wind burnt to eat this deliciousness...

The guys did manage to get out and play golf a day or so while we were there. In return, the ladies got to go out for a night on the town. We took a stroll down to Alys Beach and dined at George's. It was to die for. The next morning was also to die for according to Kelly and Megan ;)

The babies were so well behaved while we were away. They are on the same schedule, so that made it easy on us. They pretty much napped, ate, and took grumpies at the same time. For some reason, Blair is a little shy when she first meets someone. She is used to our quiet home where she spends most of her days with her Daddy. It takes her a few days to warm up. Quinn was a little vocal for Blair in the beginning. This was Blair's reaction...

By the end of the week, they were big buddies and even let us take some pictures of them together. Of course, I had to get them some matching outfits for the photo opp.  Thanks to my good friend T.T. for putting these little ensembles together for me. You can purchase some of your own if you'd like from here. 

As for the adults, we did get us a night or two out on the town without the babies. Ms. Mary (reference available upon request) came and babysat for us so we could go out and have a nice dinner. We took another stroll down to Alys Beach and dined at the Caliza Pool. This place is beautiful and the food ain't too shabby either. We had a wonderful dinner (thanks Diddy!), and even better company. 

We had a wonderful trip with this bunch. This was our second annual trip together, and we always seem to put up with each other exceptionally well for seven days. Felix and I are just so glad that Dean likes us well enough to go to the beach with us. He dislikes so many things such as casseroles, spinach dip, pine nuts, fru fru restaurants, and monogramming; I'm surprised he even likes us! HA!  Thanks to everyone for a wonderful time, and we look forward to next year!
