This post is three months overdue but definitely worth sharing still! Last April we went into our week of vacation with Tyler's parents down to Naples with some apprehensions. A vacation with the boys? How is that going to work? Tyler's parents were gracious to invite us on their vacation and the last time we were in Naples was a month before James was born. So we had memories of long walks on the beach, swimming in the pool, taking naps, enjoying sitting down at dinner (remember being able to do that? haha.) But we decided to give it a try and the week surprised us! We all had a blast. We enjoyed wonderful family time and had the joy of experiencing a vacation through the eyes of two little ones. So here is a look back at our vacation!

| Thanks to Daniel Tiger and Paw Patrol we had some help in the car! |

| We loaded up on toys from the Dollar Store for the car ride! |
James enjoyed our "vacation home" as he called it. His favorite part was the elevator rides and certain floors had candy which made it even more fun. We rode the elevator several times a day.
Our first trip to the beach was on Easter Sunday after Mass before we went to a delicious brunch. It was John's second trip (he came to Naples with us last August) but James' first trip to the beach.
James liked it more than John!
Easter brunch was a memory. There was a children's buffet and the Easter bunny made several appearances.

| How adorable is this? Buffet at child's level! |
After brunch we went back to the condo for naps and then an Easter egg hunt.

| The whole family helping! |

| Happy guy as usual |
We spent the rest of the week going to the beach, swimming, and enjoying time with Pop-Pop and GrandMommy!
Oh, and there was an emergency visit for little Johnny...
He pushed his chair over and hit his head and we were worried about a possible concussion but thankfully everything was fine. He was a champ!
James had fun at the beach collecting sea shells and making towers. John wasn't sure what to do with all the sand.
Overall we had a wonderful time! We had no idea when we were there that we would be moving so close to our "vacation home" this summer! We look forward to many more trips to the beach with our buddies!
