I recently heard the term "framily" to describe friends who have become family, and I love it! Its the perfect term for our annual vacation with the McGuires. This year we kept it close to home since we have 2 littles and went back to Hyatt Lost Pines (by the way, having a baby around the same time your best friend does?! So genius! Obviously not planned but the timing couldn't have been better!). We hadn't been there since our 2013 trip and, once again, we had the best time!
We loaded up the kids, baby dolls, and bags and headed out!
Of course we got matching popsicle shirts for all the kiddos. We got one good picture before a melt down! (get it...popsicles...melt!) ;)
The big kids went to Kids Club in the mornings while the babies napped. It was a quiet time where the dads played tennis a few mornings and the moms snuck off to the spa. And at noon we picked the bigs up and we spent the afternoons poolside. Olivia, Harris and Win were little fishes in the water, never wanting to get out. And Olivia was lucky enough to run into 2 of her best friends from Cathedral House which was such a fun surprise!
And apparently lots of rocking
(Not pictured but I always want us to remember is baby Grady, floating down the lazy river, bottom in the air and laying his head on Lloyd's shoulder, in pure heaven). I'm a broken record but it was just such a good trip (as usual) with such good friends. The kids got along pretty well, we had rooms across the hall that were conducive to constant playtime for the kids and late-night sessions for the parents, we had access to an amazing food buffet, and the weather was nice and sunny. We just love these trips so much and they are so good for our collective soul. We come back better friends, better parents, better people. Pretty sure we already have our trips planned out for the next three years and we can't wait!!
