We have been doing a week vacation to the beach every year since my mom was a baby (she’s almost 60 now). Over the years, as the family changed and there were more schedules to coordinate, it became too difficult to get all 18 of us together in one house for a week. So we started a new tradition of just my mom, step dad, sister, her bf, and my husband and two kids. We had a blast. The location was perfect. Easy walk to the beach with my 8 & 10 yr old. We also walked to Iggy’s and Aunt Carrie’s. We will definitely be looking into renting again next year!
