Our Memorial Day weekend was jam-packed with lots of fun (and a little bit of work too). I had a few appointments for work on Friday afternoon (have I mentioned I work one day a week?) before we headed out of town for the coast. Unfortunately, our babysitter canceled on me very last minute due to being sick so after scrambling and stressing, my sweet sister took Field in and took care of him so I could get to work.
LOVE this picture she texted me of Field and his cousins. Can't you just see all of the LOVE they are each showing. Cousins are such a blessing!
Friday afternoon, we loaded up the truck and headed southbound for Port Aransas. We have a very busy summer ahead of us and wanted to spend some quality time together - just the 3 of us - before the hustle and bustle of summer begins.
My parents' own a home in Port Aransas that we are SO thankful to get to stay in when we are there. Field made himself right at home with the "toy cabinet" when we arrived.
The beach was a blast and Field LOVED "wimming" in the ocean.

After our beach time, Field took a 2.5 hour nap, daddy ran errands for a fishing tournament he is hosting in Port A next weekend, and momma did this:

| Happiness! |
After naptime, we got dressed in our Port A finest (ha, kidding!) and set out for dinner in town. We ate at Fins and had a great time!
 |
| Field was so nice to pay for our dinner. ;) |
After dinner we took a stroll down the jetties to watch all of the action. It was so much fun watching everyone bring in different fish and the people watching was awesome.

| Yes, he actually grabbed someone's fishing pole. |

| Gorgeous sunset! |
Brad took us on a boat ride Sunday morning (Mr. Field was NOT happy about wearing a life jacket) and then we headed back Sunday afternoon, had a delicious and fun mexican dinner, and then spent Monday doing yard work and catching up around the house.

| Field completed his first big boy puzzle. With mommy's help! |
We hit up the neighborhood pool on Monday afternoon which wore Field out. Swimming lessons cannot come soon enough. I can't tell you how many times Field would yell "Ready, Set, Go" in the baby pool and throw himself backwards and underwater, only to drink a ton of water and come up coughing.
Sigh.
It was such a fun Memorial Day weekend together - just the 3 of us!
