A family trip...

Well, we decided to go to Vero Beach and visit my friend Emily and her husband. And then we went to my mom's in Clermont before we came home. So we left Friday after I got off of work. The 5 hour trip took us about 8 hours. Traveling with 2 two year olds is very tiring. They argued over movies, cried alot, ate a lot, and used the bathroom alot. It was very interesting. We were so glad to get to Emily's at 10pm on Friday night. We did enjoy our trip however, once we were there that is. It was so nice to see some very special people.

kids first time at the beach

We went to the beach on Saturday morning. Elyse and Hunter had never been before. The wind was very strong and the waves were very rough. The sand was pricking the kids on the face. So the kids didn't last very long. We stayed for 50 minutes. We did eat lunch in that time, we had "sand"wiches. Needless to say we definitely need to expose them again so they don't think that going to the beach is always like mini hurricane:)

aunt emmie has a baby in her belly

I have blogged about Emily before and how special she is to us. It was so nice to see Emily and Elyse connect again. Emily was my roommate when Leasey was born. She was at the hospital when she was born and she assisted me from the very beginning. The Lord used her in my life in so many ways. I get emotional thinking about it. However, now Emily is married and pregnant herself. And my life has changed too. Emily now got a chance to bond with Hunter. Who was calling her Aunt Emmie.

Breezy Afternoon in Vero

We took the kids on a little walk on Saturday afternoon to get them out of the house. The breeze felt so nice, against the skin with the smell of the ocean in the air. There are some benefits to living by the beach.

Rock Star Guitar Heros

Since Aunt Emmie and Uncle Mike's house is not quite kid friendly yet with toys, Emily pulled out the best toys that she had....Guitars from Guitar Hero. So the kiddies jammed out on the Guitars. Elyse sang all of her songs from her upcoming Easter play and Hunter echoed. It was adorable, except when Hunter got knocked in the head a couple times by the hyper rockstar Elyse.
