Our First Family Vacation



A few days after we got back from New Jersey, we packed up and headed to Myrtle Beach to meet the Geiers and Smiths for our first family vacation. The ride was about 4 hours and Mase was a champ! We were so excited to meet their new additions Amelia and Olivia and get a some much needed R&R as well. It actually exceeded exepectations! We had such an amazing time~lots of laughs with great friends!  Here is a video of Mase relaxing and listening to some jams.
The guys played 2 rounds of golf and, in return, sent the ladies to the spa for the afternoon. While at the spa, the boys had the babies at the pool and all eyes were on them! People couldn't believe that 3 men would have 3 babies and not a mommy to be found.

While the guys were golfing, the girls were brave enough to pack up the mini van and spend 5 hours at the outlet mall with the kiddies. We had a great time parading around 3 strollers and 3 babies and also got quite a few looks and comments while there. The kids did a pretty good job of behaving, making it very easy to have a fun day together

The last night we were there we decided to go out for a nice dinner. We had called ahead and warned them that we were coming and would be bringing 3 babies under the age of 4 months. They sat us in the back corner away from most of the other diners. We were all actually thrilled and felt like it was the perfect spot for us "in the event" any of the kids got fussy. We sat down when we first got there for about 5 minutes before Mason was the first to get going. We calmed him down with a bottle and then it was Olivia's turn. Once she calmed down Amelia started. It was actually too funny and we laughed the next day when we decided that all of us did not sit down together the entire dinner except for those first 5 minutes. The best part was that we made the best of it and had great time any way! We actually laughed about it and made the best of it because we were just so happy to be together!!

Mason LOVED his new girl friends and cannot wait to visit and vacation with them again!
