Our first trip as a family of five :) The Tuesday before the holiday weekend we all piled into the car, packed to the brim, and headed to Martha's Vineyard. In true fashion, I left most of the packing until the Sunday/Monday before. I think I was so overwhelmed, I just procrastinated. We ended up in fine shape, and out the door only 5 minutes later than we'd hoped to leave. AND we ended up being an hour early for the ferry - I consider that a big success. Now, because we were early, we had the opportunity to get on an early boat that was getting ready to leave in about 10 minutes. However, I had to go to the bathroom so bad, I couldn't think straight, Madelyn was yelling repeatedly from the back seat, "I have to go pee-pee" and Anna simultaneously started to scream because she was ready for a bottle. ---- literally hit the fan, all at once. Poor Q, didn't even get a chance to get out to go to the bathroom! So, we passed, and opted to get organized and just sit in the parking lot and wait the hour to board the next boat. Once we got there, we had a great relaxing long weekend!
The weather was pretty good, and we had the chance to be out and about quite a bit. The Island was really quiet, which was nice for a change, and we did a lot of catching up with family and friends. So, so, nice. Madelyn had the BEST time, Quigley had a blast romping in the yard and going for a walk to the beach, Anna was all smiles, and Brian and I went on a few dates and got drinks with friends. We're heading back up in a few weeks for a week, including a wedding of our dear friends, and we can't wait!
Here are some pictures of our trip :)
