4th of July 2010

This summer has been a pretty busy one for the Robles fam, hence my lack of posts! I am really going to try to do a better job of staying on top of my blog as I am now trying to update a few different posts at once. Such is the life of Mom to a 16 month old I guess.

For the 4th of July we packed up our family and headed down to Naples Beach where we met some of our closest friends and their families. This was our first vacation with Lily and our friends, up to this point Lily has only vacationed with family. In our crew we had 6 couples and 11 children ranging in age from 9 months to 6 years. Lily and the 9 months old were the only babies, the rest were all at a much more desirable age for vacationing!

our "Kid Crew" (Lily is all the way on the left)


Lily experienced a couple of "firsts" on this trip:

On the car ride down, I gave Lily her first pedicure...check out these piggies!

This also marked her first visit to the beach! She absolutely LOVED it! She was mesmerized by the sand at first and loved playing in it.





Daddy also enjoyed playing in the sand:
We stayed in Naples at The Naples Beach Resort for 4 nights. On the actual 4th, we spent the day at the beach, came back to our room for a nap and a shower, then headed back to the beach for a BBQ and fireworks. It doesn't get more All-American than that folks! It was an awesome day with our friends.



Lily loved the fireworks and sat still on our laps for the entire show!

A couple of pics of the gang:
We had such a wonderful holiday with our freinds, and Lily had a great time playing with all the big kids! We can't wait to do it again next year. Happy belated birthday U.S.A.!!!
