Many thanks to the team that made it all happen, my mom and dad, Matt's mom Cris and sister Bethany. I don't think I could have gone had I not had complete peace that our kiddos were in the second best hands to our own. I ached to get home to them, but tried my hardest (per my dear friend Erin's advice) to not wish it away, because life would return to normal and I would long for the warm weather, sand in my toes and intimate conversations with Matt once we were home.
So, we ate, drank, laid in the sun, walked, worked out, slept in, ate some more and repeat. It was heavenly. I realized how much I was in need of the time with Matt more than the time away itself. We hadn't had more than one night, 24 hours, alone since Brooklyn was born...going on four years. That is too long.
My babies had the time of their lives. No, seriously. Came home to find two spoiled rotten children (in the best sense of the words). All was well, and we were extra blessed to have Matt home with us for four days after that! So it was just a fantastic week all around.
Here are a few pics from the trip.
