Beyoncé stops the world with extremely rare Sir and Rumi photo

Beyoncé and Jay-Z really know how to stop the world.

On Thursday, the couple bid a proper farewell to the European leg of their On the Run II tour — which wrapped up July 17 in Nice, France — by sharing a bunch of flawless personal photographs from their post-concert vacation.

The photos, which Beyoncé shared to her website in an album titled: "Thank you Europe," captured the many adventures the Carter fam went on while abroad, and more importantly gave fans a glimpse at the royal twins, Sir and Rumi.

First things first: Here is Bey and the twins, who were born in June 2017 but have kept a very low profile in public.

Unlike photos of Blue Ivy, Beyoncé rarely shares pictures of the twins, with the exception of her flower-filled Instagram announcement to mark the one-month anniversary of their birth.

And though we caught glimpses of the twins in videos projected at recent concerts (though not every baby shown on screen at the shows were the real Rumi or Sir,) this photo is one of the first times Bey has publicly revealed photos of her young children.

Naturally Blue Ivy was there too, slaying as usual, as was Bey's mom Tina Knowles. It truly looks to have been a vacation filled with great clothes, fancy cars, fancier boats, a little mother/daughter meditation, and multiple pairs of sunglasses.

And if for some bizarre reason you're not in the mood to scroll through hundreds of photos on the singer's website, the loyal Beyoncé fan account @Bey_Legion has kindly shared some highlights on Twitter.

Beyoncé also thanked Europe for the memories in a written message shared to her website that reads, "It's been a pleasure being On The Run with our family, visiting so many incredible places, doing what we love with who we love. We can't wait to come back. Love, the Carters."

The Carters are back in the U.S. now, and played their first show in Cleveland, Ohio on Wednesday. On behalf of Bey Hive members and Carter Family stans everywhere, I would also like to thank Europe for these blessed photos.
