Last week we got to take the BEST roadtrip! We drove just a short 90 minutes north to visit our friends the Blackanns: Laura, Taylor & Bo are visiting her parents out here in CA while Trevor is in the midst of a job transfer from DC to Denver. What a sweet, sweet reunion we all had. It was as if no time had passed...until we sat and watched our daughters play make-believe with each other and negotiate turn-taking with the beloved princess backpack and care for their little brothers. Very grown-up behavior from the girls who met each other when Mils was just three months old.
The kids swam and swam and swam in Nana & Pops' resort-like pool until Mils forgot who she was and just started leaping off the pool stairs into Laura's arms. It was fun to watch her gain the courage to mimic Taylor and Bo (you should see this 1yr old swim...unbelievable fearlessness in the water). The kids settled into simultaneous naps and Laura and I got a few sweet hours of catch-up time. The perfect day ended with dinner on the patio and one last dip in the pool.
