Miami Beach 2012

 The Pepin Family 

is off to Miami Beach 

to spend some quality time with our Sonny and Meme

in style at the Grand Beach Hotel in Miami Beach!

We had a super fantastic time!

Sonny treated us like the Royal Family!

Let's just say "Room Service" has 

a whole new meaning to my boys!

They are just like their mom!!

The Grand Beach Hotel
was quite a special spot!
It is definitely a whole other world of delight!
My dad is still my hero!!
To know my dad is to be inspired!!

Yes, that is my shadow...I just follow 

these little men all over the beach!

The Beach is one of my most favorite happy spots!

And these boys...well, they are my love!

As for Miami Beach...need I say more!

The boys had an absolute blast 

morning, noon, and night at this Grand Beach!!

Opps, Brody got his clothes all wet!

"Roar!" It is all good and fun!!

It doesn't get better than this!!

This Beach Mission was not about the

Shells...as you can see it was about

as many Beach Rocks as we could find!

And we found at least 50 Rocks a day!

Oh boy! I am sure most of the Rocks 

will be waiting for us...on our next visit!!

Brooks was fascinated with

the East Coast of Florida and the Atlantic Ocean!

It is rough....and so different from our West Coast of Florida!

Brody had such a great time at the Beach!

Always playing with his Best Friend Brooks!

The Ocean was so Turquoise!

The Boys played on the Beach for hours!

My Sweet Handsome Boy!

Happiest little man I know!!

And just making this place their home!

I love this guy so much!

So relaxed and enjoying the Grand Beach Hotel!

We had such a great relaxing vacation 

in Miami Beach! We are truly blessed!

Thank you Sonny for treating 

us so special! You are right there in your element!!

Sonny is a Rock Star!

We look forward to our next visit to Miami Beach!

Co-Pilots

 Brooks and Brody were Co-Pilots on our

SouthWest Flight to Ft. Lauderdale the other day!

This was definitely a highlight for their 

Summer Bucket List!

It was so stinken cute to see these boys

light up and get so excited for their 1st flight!

Although Brooks did go on a flight when he

was a baby to the Keys, but he was so fired up!

Check it out!

In preparation Brody wore his Pilot 

Costume for days before we took 

the big Flight!

Brooks was all ready with his suitcase packed!

Let's go to the Airport!

All packed and looking cool!

Let's do it!

Brooks had the biggest smile I had ever seen!

Just so anxious and excited for the take off!

It was Priceless!

Brody just enjoyed that short little plane

ride with his Meme!

Most importantly these little guys

got their Pilot Wings from SouthWest!

Brooks wore his wings so proudly!

Precious Brody was super excited about his Wings too!

It was such an exciting memory for the boys and I 

and their Meme! It was true happiness!

Thank You Co-Pilots!
