Sofia with her Tia Sara
Every year we get together with our dear friends, Sara and Kevin, in South Padre Island. It's always such a fun trip - as relaxing as you can ever imagine and it's always so fun to get together, have some drinks, catch up on our lives, sleep in, stay up late and spend all day in the sun. This year we got to bring Sofia and although that meant less drinks and absolutely NO sleeping in it was still a great time! Sara's parents came this year and their cousin John and even Mandy came in from sunny Santa Monica! We got to spend time with other family friends too - it was really fun! Everyone was so sweet and loving with Sofia - she definitely made some new friends.
We started the trip by driving to San Antonio to visit with our friends Scott and Kristy and their little one, who was born just two weeks before Sofia. Their little Camryn was so sweet and super cuddly. We were so busy chatting that we forgot to take pictures!
We continued on to Sara and Kevin's home in Laredo which is lovely and may have the most comfortable sheets I've ever slept on. I almost traded Sofia for them but quickly rethought that! They just opened a restaurant called HAL's Landing so we got to check it out. It was so beautiful and huge. We were so happy to finally be able to see it. We stayed in Laredo for a couple of days before heading to the beach.
Daddy and Sofes in the comfy sheets
Unfortunately, the sun hid from us the entire week we were there but we were still able to get in a couple of evenings sitting out on the sand and Sofia got one day at the pool. Dan got in the water one of the days and he yet again won first place in his imaginary Body Surfing Competition. It was quite a win considering he didn't feel like they were "the waves champions are made from." He impressed us nonetheless. I actually have video which I'll share soon.
Since most of the trip was spent lounging around we didn't take too many pics but here's a few...
