1st trip away

Mommy and Daddy took their first trip without the boys. Raising 28 months twin boys + 2.5 months bed rest = MUCH NEEDED VACATION

Collin and I headed to the beach. Jupiter Island in Florida. July 25-July 30. 5 Nights. The weather was prefect. Not 1 drop of rain. We snorkeled, swim in the ocean, went offshore fishing, ate incredible fish dinners, sat on the beach day after day, toured the lighthouse and even witness sea turtles being born.

We cherished every moment just the 2 of us. We were ready to come home and hugs our boys by the end of the trip. Thanks Grandparents for taking such wonderful care of the boys.




















WE MISSED YOU BOYS!
