Beach Week 2011

The last week in July was a VERY fun week for us...we headed to Sandbridge, Virginia (right by Virginia Beach) for the 4th Annual De Falco Family Beach Week!

Brie is a lucky little girl because one of our first items of business was to celebrate her first birthday (Two parties? Yes, please!) with all of the family! Tony and I baked her a yummy cake and decorated it with a character that I think everyone will find familiar! After all, Brie is our very own very hungry caterpillar!!

Playing with Uncle David and Aunt Cheryl



All dressed up for her birthday! (Like the dress I found on Etsy?? Nonna found these adorable shoes for Brie in Italy!)




Fun with Aunt Diane




It's my birthday!!



Snuggles with Daddy

Playtime with Gammy



Sammy chowing down with Cousin Colin (looks like Tony is saying, "Eat your veggies!")



BIRTHDAY CAKE!!

It's so fun being an auntie! Here's me and Baby Lucas!

Granddaddy Rob and Tony being silly



Brie loved her new cousin



Here's the whole gang!

Sammy modeling his new suit and rash guard shirt!



One highlight of our week: Sammy's new kite!



We thought he would let go, but he didn't!

We spent a lot of time by the ocean...the water was warm!

Brie liked the beach, but we had to keep her from eating fistfuls of sand!

Another highlight? The ice cream truck "delivering" fresh popsicles right to our frontdoor!

Sunshine and cloth diapers go perfectly together

Cousins and cousins!



Here's us outside of the beach house my parents used to own. Tony and I got engaged her exactly ten years ago!



Smiles with Granddaddy Rob

Happy Summer, everyone!



Check out all of the De Falco University gear!




Cutie Pie Cousins!!

 P.S. We'll leave you with two fun videos from our beach week. The first is of Brie diving right into her first cake (she did NOT disappoint) and the second is Sammy's rendition of "Happy Birthday" (for Nonno) with his very own "personalized" touch at the end. Hehe.
