Destin Day 5

Our last full day...  It rained off and on throughout the day but we squeezed in both the beach and the pool.  I'm not ready to go home!



It's vacation but with 6 kids in the house I am up early every day anyways.  At least I get a beautiful view with my morning coffee

All of the adults besides myself were asleep and these kids were up.  I decided to take them for a morning walk on the beach.  Joseph is still in his pajamas.

Lorelai found a piece of driftwood with barnacles

"Best Vaca Ever!"

After our last picture, our friend Mason decided he wanted one with the message of "S.O.S".  Do they all look distressed?

Time to get back to the condo...that rain is rolling in and it's looking ominous



When you vacation at the beach you just have to dig a big hole in the sand.

Scarlet is pretending to be mad at the waves that keep knocking her down

She kept stomping her feet and scolding the waves

I guess scarlet has a "love-hate" relationship with the waves because she looks pretty happy to me!

Destin Day 4

It was a very rainy day today.  We spent a lot of time in the condo, watching movies and playing games.  When the rain took a break we dashed down to the pool to swim for a bit.  Babci and Pop Pop came over with an amazing dinner too.  The kids swam with Pop Pop and I think they got a glimpse into my childhood when they saw how Pop Pop likes to play in the pool... No one was traumatized today.  Video at the end in the web version...

Destin Day 3

Day 3 in Destin and Joseph's official Birthday! We made a super long beach day of it because we saw in the forecast that we would get rain in the next two days.  We stayed at the beach over 6 hours!



Joseph loves waving to the planes that go by...but in this picture he looks like he's saluting

Sometimes these two have just the sweetest bond

Evelyn is off to explore the sea!









Come out of your shell little hermit crab...

holding onto each other to jump in the waves

We went out for ice cream for Joseph's birthday and he got a special birthday treat
