 Jim say hello to the vlog. Hey, what's up? Come on. Tommy say hello to the vlog. Hey, how's it going? B say hello to the vlog. Hi. Let's say hello to the vlog. Hey, vlog. Hey, vlog. We are officially in Rhode Island. All right, so we just finished up at the beach today. Didn't really tell you all why we were even doing this or where we were even going, but we drove to Rhode Island from New Jersey today to meet up with my older brother, my niece, my sister-in-law, and then my other brother and his girlfriend came and met us in Rhode Island as well. We just met on the beach today and had an amazing beach day. It's also Labor Day weekend, so we wanted to kind of spend time with family and all that stuff, so we're hot. Although it wasn't that bad today. The weather was pretty good. And now we are going to drive up another probably half hour to go back to their place. I still have never been to my older brother's house and that's where we're going tonight, spending time there, making dinner, grilling out usual Labor Day activities. And if you don't follow my older brother, that's DVM Chilini, link up here. That's what I'm talking about. All right, we'll put these on when we get to this one. Hey, how would you rate your beach day today? 10 out of 10. 10 out of 10. Caitlin? 11 out of 10. Okay, so I'm trying to have- So 10 Beatresses out of 10 Beatresses. Liz, how would you rate your- Oh, friggin' phenomenal. Jim? 10 out of 10 until you got here. I think it was a two out of 10. B, B, how would you rate your beach day? B, how would you rate your beach day? I'm buying some fresh fish for tonight. You should be good. I probably won't cook any of it, because I don't know how to. Luckily, Jim and Tommy know how to.

All right, so what do you say we go check in on what kind of food we're making if you're at all curious? If you're a seafood lover, you may like this. Okay, okay. Basically, I've been over here working diligently at the store of making the lobster. Liz has gotten in my way a lot. But, and then we made this. He's coming in hot. By we, I mean Liz, a nice, okay, I'll see you soon. I'm sure the Tommy's working hard at the lobster legs, the tiny lobster legs. Who eats? Comment below if you eat the little lobster legs. Look at all that meat. Yeah, seriously. He's not doing anything. Beef is eating stuff. This is the first time Michael's never seen a lobster in real life. Come on, little halibut. Cool dog. I love how she just feeds herself. She doesn't have to sit there and feed her. I know. She's killing it. And good morning. Welcome back to another day here in the beautiful Rhode Island. So yesterday we went to the beach all day, hung out with friends. Oh, there were no friends there. There was all family. I don't know why I said that. Came back to the hotel late at night last night so I didn't really vlog it. But it was very interesting because when we got here at about like 8.30 p.m., there was the literally biggest music festival, radio festival, something going on and the music was like insane loud. And usually, you know, when I was in my 20s, I'd be like, oh, that's so cool. But now I was super tired after we drove like almost four hours in the morning, went to the beach all day yesterday and I was pretty tired towards the end of the day and I wanted some sleep. But there was a whole bunch of music going on outside of our hotel room, people yelling, cars revving, all that stuff. So that was cool. However, ended up going to sleep pretty quickly anyways, probably because I was so tired and Andriana, as usual, passed out in two seconds. But today is a new day. It's Sunday. We're going to go over to Jim and Liz's place. See B, of course, because that's the main reason we came out here to spend time with my niece and see where this day takes us. Let's go. First, almost. All right, Andriana went back in because she forgot my sunglasses. I also have a YouTube video coming out this morning which is on my desk set up. So hopefully you all enjoy that. Thought it's pretty cool. I'm gonna spend some time putting that desk together and have the ideas in my head and all that stuff. So if you haven't seen that video, you can go check it out up here. But, oh, hold on a sec. Hey. I think you have them, babe. Are you sure? Well, it's fine because they're not in my hat. That's why. All right, let me see. Oh my God, I put them in my bag. All right then. So Andriana went up to grab our sunglasses but she had them in our bag all along. Classic. So anyways, so go check out that video if you haven't already. I think it's a pretty cool video and you get to see my whole desk which I was really excited about building. Anyways, we are going to grab some coffee first and foremost. Wait, where were my sunglasses? In my bag. It's so automatic. See, I always think of you. My brain doesn't even know that I always think of you. Okay. So I have to say, there's a cute little downtown area in Providence, Rhode Island. We are probably about maybe like five or so minutes from actual Brown University, which I've never been to in my life, but cute downtown area. Is that cute down here? Durable. Durable. Nobody's here because it's Labor Day but it's cute nonetheless. Delicious. I have coffee milks here up in there. Where's coffee milks at? What do you describe that as? It's a Rhode Island staple that you, I don't know. So kind of like, it tastes like coffee. He says it tastes like coffee syrup. Coffee syrup. But it could also taste like chocolate milk. Interesting. But I don't know if I taste any of it. Where are we going? So we decided to take a pit stop and take Little Beatrice to the park. And there's now six adults watching her play in the park. Put us on the beach. That's nice. What area are we in by the way? Wow. We're on the North Kingston Town Beach. What is it? This is the North Kingston Town Beach. North Kingston Town Beach. If anybody's been to this playground, this is about, oh, it's like a little beach. So we're gonna do this and then we're gonna take a trip down to St. James Island for the day. It's not St. James Island, it's Jamestown. Oh. Where did he even make that up? Sorry, Jamestown Island. Get that camera out of my face. What? I don't know how people vlog on this. Okay. I don't know how people vlog on this and keep it super straight, but this is the new or the latest DJI gimbal here. And it's actually pretty legit. So we'll do some B Playground montage right now. Hey, so I think the last time I was filming we were with my niece on the Playground. And we ended up going out for nice breakfast slash lunch slash whatever. I know you guys probably think we're crazy, but pretty much all we do as a family is cook, drink, have fun, hang out with each other, especially now that we have a new niece in the building. So we're having my cousin come up from Boston today, the same one who got married in Hawaii, which if you saw that vlog linked up here. And we are going to be essentially cooking again. And Tony, my cousin from Boston is a chef. So he's going to come up and bring his expertise. Going to do some grilling and drink some wine and enjoy another night together. So it is officially, what's it say? Monday Labor Day. And just said our goodbyes to be and the family. And we made a quick pit stop at the gas station in the middle of Connecticut. Got some snacks, cliff bar, and ready to go about two and a half hours from home. And happy Labor Day. Happy Labor Day. So we just got back to Jersey. We stopped at Whole Foods all the way back because Andrana's mom, my mother-in-law is coming over tonight, staying with us. So we're just going to keep this family trip journey going. I actually am on call starting right now at noon. So yeah, I'll be on call the rest of the week. So I got to be close by local in case any emergencies happen. Today's obviously a holiday. I don't have to go in, but still have to be around in this area in case of an emergency. So she's coming over. We just finished checking out Whole Foods and we are making roasted chicken tonight. And we got everything and then we were walking out. And then Andrana remembered that she forgot to get chicken, which is the main part of our roast chicken. All right, so that officially concludes this vlog. Hope you all enjoyed it. I know I kind of just bring you along for the ride, hanging out with family. It's not really that exciting, but every now and then, you know, some people like to watch these vlogs. So I just film a little bit and go from there.
