Vacation Recap.

Well, here we are...back in New York, back to reality. As I type this, there is a symphony of car horns (like TEN car horns) being blasted all at once outside our window -- it's like a wall of sound bouncing off the buildings and coming straight up into the apartment where my sleeping baby lies. Lovely. Welcome home! Anyway, let's pretend I'm still at the beach, shall we? :) 

(much better...)

As I said before, we had a great time. Part of me was nervous that Miles wouldn't adapt well or would have sleeping issues (we had to share a room with him) but it all worked out so well. He did great and we had such a wonderful time with Dan's family. 

There was plenty of time spent on the beach, time spent on the boardwalk (seriously the classiest boardwalk I've ever been to), a day at the waterpark, card games at night, lots of down time for reading books, naps(!).....ah vacation. 

Miles sneaking up on people at the condo :)

One lovely warm evening, Dan's mom offered to stay and watch Miles while we rode bikes to the boardwalk for a night of good old fashioned fun including the arcade (skee ball! ms. pac-man!) ice cream and rides. Such fun! 

ferris wheel!

Another night we drove 10 miles up the highway for a date night in Atlantic City. What a crazy place. We enjoyed an amazingly tasty meal at one of the restaurants in AC's newest hotel and casino, Revel, won 30 bucks at the slot machines (woohoo!), and walked the Steel Pier which has been around since 1898 and has a seriously charming old-timey feel to it...it was all such fun. 

 

(those are birds flying around up there...so. many. birds. creepy)

Aaaand, I seem to be out of photos! Guess I didn't take as many as I thought. So to sum up: beach vacation ---> relaxing ---> fun ---> huge success ---> yay!
