The Bush family has been in the limelight for years. They have been a powerhouse in U.S. politics for generations, but it was when George H.W. Bush became president, everyone became familiar with the family.

Long before they were famous, they established a home in Kennebunkport and would spend their summer time there enjoying the sunshine and ocean, and although the wife of George H.W. Bush, Barbara, has passed on, the family is still spending their summers there.

This past week they spent their first vacation in Kennebunkport without the matriarch of the family. It must have been hard to enjoy such a beautiful place with all of the amazing memories surrounding them. From the looks of Jenna Bush Hager’s photos, it looks like they did okay despite losing their matriarch.

Jenna posted a picture to social media of she and her twin sister, Barbara, posing alongside their grandfather. The message read, “Back now…but dreamed of Maine last night. Love this place…love these people. What a magical week with the ones I adore.”

She didn’t stop with just one happy picture though. She posted several more of her daughters having a good time too. They enjoyed all of the amenities that having a family compound has to offer. These little girls were born into one of the most all-American families around, and they probably don’t even know it yet.

Jenna’s husband, Henry Chase Hager, also made an appearance on social media. Her family seems to love the attention, and it helps that they are all photogenic. Sometimes you just have to make due with what you have, and this family obviously knows how to make the best of a family, summer vacation.

With Grandpa George just hitting 94 years of age, they don’t know how many more summers they’ll have with him either, but it looks like they’re making the most of whatever time they have. After all, what beats sunshine, ocean, and ice cream?

Be sure to share this story with your family and friends so they can keep up on what is going on with one of America’s favorite families.
