Rockport/Trevor's Birthday

This past Friday, May 20, was Trevor's 34th birthday and for the perfect gift, we decided we needed to get away.  So, early Friday morning we packed up the Tahoe for a two day weekend vacation to Rockport.  If you saw our car you would have thought we were packing for a month's getaway!  Babies really do need a lot of junk!

We started Trevor's birthday with pancakes in bed.  Millie  and I really put a lot of love into them.  Then Millie got Trevor the sweetest card and I gave him some new swim trunks and a Reef t-shirt to rock down at the coast. 

We arrived at The Little Bay Club which is located right on the bay and is private little cottages with one really cool pool.  We checked in and relaxed for a bit and then went and ate at Moondog's on the water which was really nice.  After Millie's bath we decided to go walk down the pier and watch the sun set.




Notice the huge mansion in the background?  That's George Strait's house!
Saturday we went over to the beach and got to introduce Millie to the ocean for the first time!

I love this shot.  She was checking out the water but wasn't quite sure what it was.

My absolute favorite picture ever.  Melt my heart one thousand times!

We then took Millie back to the cottage to take a nap and then we headed to the pool.  She loved swimming in the pool!

She wasn't crazy about the float because mommy and daddy weren't holding her but she was brave!

Time out for a little lunch!

Millie absolutely loves the water!  She would kick her legs so fast and splash water into her face and then laugh.  It was so precious to watch.   We had the greatest time watching her laugh and just have so much fun being with her mommy and daddy for three whole days uninterrupted.  I'm not sure if this was a birthday gift for Trevor or for me!  This family time was so special and so memorable that I think we may make this an annual trip for Trevor's birthday.  What a great memory!
