Nathan's Birthday and Natalie's First Beach Trip!

October 22nd & 23rd

For Nathan's birthday weekend, we took a trip to visit Gabriel in South Carolina. Nathan, Dawn (Nathan's mom), Natalie, and I headed up Friday. Nathan's brother, Mark, and his son, Jacob, also came down from North Carolina to add to the fun! Mark also got his middle son, Parker, for the weekend. The eight of us had a great time.

On Saturday we went to the beach. It was the perfect day for Natalie to have her first beach trip! She even got to dip her toes in the water! The boys played in the sand, buried each other, and got in the water (a little too cold for me). We all had a blast!

That evening, we got to see Gabriel play a soccer game. He played goalie, and his team won 2-1!

Before leaving Sunday, we went to a park and roamed around a little while. It was another wonderful day outside, and the Kendalls always know how to have a good time.

Nathan had a great birthday weekend spent with his family. On Nathan's birthday last year we announced to Gabriel that he was going to be having a brother or sister. It's hard to believe that a year has gone by, and sweet Natalie is here adding to the great memories.
