Family Vacation

Galveston Island - Thanksgiving 2007 Vacation


So it's our first vacation as a family of 6 and let me tell you this is a vacation unlike any we've had. When you have 4 newborns it's not so much fun in the sun as it is the same routine with a change of scenery. Nonetheless, we are making the best of it and enjoying being with the rest of the family who came down from Iowa and Minnesota.


The Cousins Enjoying The Beach


On a pre-quad vacation, we would have no clocks, spend lots of time napping in the sunshine and chilling on the beach. Now we live by our watches so the babies stick to their schedule in hopes that one of these days they'll sleep through the night. The beach is a short trip in between naps while someone else stays here to watch the babies and man the monitors. Okay, it sounds like I'm complaining but I'm not - just observing how different our lives are now.

So glad you have this opportunity - to have so much family together. Enjoy the time - even if you do have to watch the clock! May God bless your time together this week.

So great to see the cousins meet and get to know each other. Have a great Thanksgiving and safe traveling home for all. Now I know why Jimmy (ha ha) didn't answer the home phone.
Love the pictures!
