Beach Baby

It has become a Tashie/Taras tradition now for the 5th year to take a beach trip together! It is one of the highlights of our year! The Tashies so graciously allow us to spend a week in their beautiful beach home in Santa Rosa, Florida! Our group seems to get a little larger each year! The more, the merrier! =) And might I add--this picture below was quite a feat to get everyone to actually look at the camera and keep their eyes open at the same time!! ;) But after many attempts... we got one! 

It took VK quite some time to get warmed up to the idea of sand, but by the end of the trip she loved it so much she would eat it! yuck!

Taking a baba break on the boat! 

The boat was quite a hit for the little ones! 

Petey even found some cool shades to wear!

The kids got so sandy that Lindsey and I would just strip them down on the porch and head straight to the tub!! They loved tub time! 

We had lots of fun with the boys hair! Maybe next year VK will have enough to style! =)

VK was always getting kisses from one of the boys! Her daddy wasn't too keen on the idea of kisses in the tub! But Lindsey and I thought it was too cute!

She was fascinated by the ocean! 

It was a constant contest between Petey and Hobs, who would get the most kisses from VK! Too funny! One day they will be totally embarrassed by these shots!  

My sweet, happy baby.... this little face never ceases to brighten my day! 

There is nothing like kisses from daddy!

This was so far the most memorable trip yet! Having Virginia Kate to share it with made all the difference! We hate to have to leave, but looking forward to many more wonderful trips to come!
