A Beach Retreat

To celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary (it was on June 2nd), Josh and I spent a few days in South Padre Island while my folks came to our house to watch Kate. This was the first time for us to leave her overnight. She did great! My parents had a wonderful time with their grandbaby, and Josh and I were able to relax and enjoy ourselves knowing that she was so well cared for. They even mowed our yard and had supper waiting for us when we got back! How blessed are we??!

Here's a few pics from our trip. We were able to stay right on the beach, which was nice. This is the view from our hotel balcony:

That's Josh, waving his arms:


Ahh...it was a nice mini-vacation. Of course much of what we talked about was how fun it'll be to bring Kate to the beach next time. I'm already looking forward it! Thanks again, Grandma and Grandpa!

i have had dinner waiting for you every night for the past month. Where are you, that beach is lame compared to the place we have for you. You still have time if you get on the plane in the next 2 days.
