A Trip to the Beach!

Doug and I had a really tough week (probably one of the hardest either of us has had in a long time), and on Friday we got some WONDERFUL news, so we decided that we all deserved a last minute vacation... so what better place to go than Isle of Palms in Charleston, SC!?!? Doug and I have been here before, and we loved it, so we booked a hotel room and headed on down. The weather was awesome when we arrived, the trip only took about 3 hours, and the first thing we did when we got there was head over to Mosaic, one of our favorite restaurants, and sat outside to eat dinner. Trey had a blast, and we knew right away that this was the perfect way to start a weekend.

On Saturday we spent the entire day at the beach. The weather was warm, but overcast- which made it perfect for us! Since it wasn't super sunny, the beach was almost deserted, and we were able to spread out and let Trey play all day long (literally). Trey did a ton of playing- and he ate his fair share of sand! :) In the morning, we had some "classic" beach family pictures taken by Johanna- a local photographer, who did an amazing job. I've always wanted to do this, and I wasn't disappointed. She was a blast to work with, and even Trey was able to relax. For those of you who have actually done a photo shoot with Trey, you know that this is NOT an easy task! I can't wait to get the photographs back!

It was a wonderful, relaxing weekend, and we couldn't have planned it better! In fact, I'm actually really happy that we didn't plan it, and we just did whatever we wanted.

Some of Trey's new accomplishments include mastering the use of a fork and giving kisses (which basically translate into a head butt with his mouth wide open).
