Meeting (most) of the Fam!!

Billy is transferring from Roanoke territory to Lynchburg - WOOHOO! It's awesome and a wonderful surprise, but it also means him selling new drugs and going back to New York for training. for 10 days. leaving me with a newborn and a 3 year old. yikes. So what do I do? Bump my trip to the shore up! haha.

Billy left for NY and the kids and I survived a few days alone. Not too bad. I cleaned and packed and left. :) We stopped in Richmond for a couple days to spend some time with the Daniels' family. Sharon & I took Meredith to the Children's Museum in Richmond and introduced Micah to some of the family that hadn't met him yet. A couple days later the kids and I took off, excited to spend 11 wonderful days on the Shore!!!! We had soooo much fun. I couldn't have asked for better weather, better quality time with family, or for better kids. They were amazing the entire time. Billy came the last weekend we were there and got to have fun with us before returning for work. It was such a good trip!

We went to the beach twice, traveled to Ocean City, MD. to enjoy the boardwalk and ride rides, took Meredith to see Disney Junior's Pirate & Princess tour, had multiple dinners with family, celebrated Uncle Wardy's birthday on Chincoteague, played with Megan & her kids several times, and Billy & I even had a date night! WOOHOO! :)

Meredith & I were super sad to leave, and even extended our trip an extra day because we weren't ready to say goodbye. It's hard being that far away because weekend trips aren't that easy - especially with 2 kiddos now. I hate that my family only gets to see us every few months, but we make it work the best we can. We didn't get to see my cousins (The Sayers & Bradford crew) yet again... I'm pretty bad at communicating once I get on the shore because we stay so busy. That's a MUST the next time we're home!!! We finally started our trip home and I'm not sure who struggled with us leaving more... us or Aunt Kate & MawMaw :)

Here's a few pictures of our trip home. We're counting the days until we return.
