Hamptons Getaway

I really need to speed up my summer blog posts so that I can try to stay current so here's to breezing through the past summer. We were really lucky to go to the Hamptons with good family friends. We have been going away once a year pretty much since I was pregnant with Tyler. The kids love playing with each other since they have known each other literally since birth. It was a wonderful time for both kids and parents.

The house we rented had a pool and hot tub and the kids were in the pool for hours every day. Tyler finally had the courage to go inside the pool with a floatie. Peer pressure does wonders when you're the only one not in the pool. Tyler quickly got over his fears and loved playing in the pool with his friends.

So we went to Cooper's Beach in South Hampton, rated #3 in the USA as the best beach in America. I could see why it's rated so highly. They even have a plstic mat lining the path from the boardwalk to the middle of the beach so that you don't get your feet burned. I felt like a celebrity..haha. The beach was beautiful and not very crowded (maybe it had something to do with the $40 per car parking fee). It was very Hampton-esque.

The boys couldn't get enough of pouring water out of the watering can. I think this kept Justin occupied for a good hour. Gotta love that! So, we basically went to the pool every day and then a couple of beaches during our stay. All in all, it was a wonderful time had by all.
