So, we have finally settled in from our first ever Fordham Family Truckster Vacation. And I'll tell you what, Chevy Chase has nothing on us. We had wedding rings lost, a cell phone (with sensitive material on them :-} ) misplaced and recovered as well as possums, stray cats, an interesting discussion about 50 shades of grey, kids in closets and bathrooms, neighborhood security rule breaking notices, awesome grilled cheeses, fun topless ... , wait for it, ... jeeps (get you mind out of the gutter), bribing of toothless roof workers, fun visits from family, poops in the pool, pictures on the beach, a jagermeister salad, reminiscence from otto, strange tattooed men holding our babies, 2am discussions about life, loss of sleep, friends being friends :), emerald water, a GIANT Stud 2yr old, buyers remorse, more neighborhood security rule breaking notices, an awesome family breakfast, bleached white sand, LOTS of lost golf balls, a sunset at the beach, stalking the garbage man, and 1 other memory :) ...
Needless to say, it was quite an experience. We had soo sooo soooo much fun. (even though we literally slept about 4-5 hours a night). The kids are learning to love the pool. Katie and I learned the do's and don'ts of taking 3 munchkins on a 450 mile excursion. Grace was awesome. Will and Megan ROCKED and the weather was perfect. What else do you need?? In fact, I'm already counting down the days until we go again :)
Anyway, here are some pics of the adventure. Enjoy
