Beach Trip- March 16-20th

My sister, Amie, and her husband, Matt, rented a condo down in Gulf Shores for Spring Break and let us ALL come and crash their week. My other sister, Alicia, and her husband, Robert, came with Betsy, and I drove down with my kids and Mom. Brad had to stay at home and work, and I really missed not having him there! We had a very relaxing trip and loved getting to soak up some sunshine and stuff ourselves with seafood!

After a long trip down, we opted for a quick
Subway sandwich as we arrived.
Emily couldn't wait to get to the beach that
first morning. Uncle Robert carried her down
while I finished getting Hunter ready.
Hooray!
I love it, Mommy!

Aunt Alicia helping Em jump the waves
Hunter did great! He'd play on his blanket and
then curl up for a nap with the ocean waves in
the background. Ahhhh!

Betsy, Emily, Alicia
She actually liked the ocean water this trip!
And she LOVED the sand, too!



Learning an important life lesson..... :0)


Alicia can even make eating fun! See her bunny rabbit?

How fun! Missed you at this years girls trip but totally understand. Hope you can come next time! Emily is such a doll I bet she is a performer. She just seems like she could entertain for hours! :) Love that!!

Aww, looks like so much fun! Emily is such a beach girl. If Hunter and Eva Brooke like to sleep on the beach this much, we may have to go again sooner than we thought! Beach trips are usually a little exhausting but so many memories!
