Mr. & Mrs. Vandebilt + kids

Mom and Jim arrived mid-week and have been soaking up as much sun as possible while they are here. We have quickly oriented them on the lay of the land, lack of schedule or plan and general laziness of vacation. They’ve caught on quickly.

Sadly, for their first day here I spent most of it inside nursing poor little Madeline. It wouldn’t be a family vacation if someone didn’t get sick and unfortunately this time it was little Mads. She spent the day in bed, mostly all alone (at her request) attempting to rest between bouts of sick. The boys still had a great first day on the golf course – even if the round took 6.5 hours. Nora and Mom spent the day poolside.

Lucky for everyone, kids bounce back quickly and by the next morning she was more or less back to herself. The boys headed back to the links for another extraordinarily long round while the girls spent the afternoon at the beach. We all met up for dinner, eventually, before calling it an early night.
