Family Vacation

So we moved into our home and then took off for the beach!  It sounds crazy and probably is a little bit, but the vacation was much needed!  We’ve started taking a family vacation every year to Seagrove, FL.  We used to go as a family every summer but once we were in college it was hard to find the time.  Thankfully now that we are all out of college and we can save our vacation time, we are able to take a trip as a family again.  I took my camera along but unfortunately never took it out of my bag.  Instead relied on my phone for quick pictures.

We took some time one night to take some family pictures.  Not too long ago we realized the boys all had the same shirt, so we had them wear it and turned out quite funny.  And if I do say so myself, this was the cutest baby on the beach, and as my aunt pointed out, she was the only baby on the beach!

We visited some of our favorite restaurants while down there, we had breakfast at The Donut Hole and we went into Destin one night for our favorite Amberjack sandwich at The Back Porch.  There is also a new rooftop bar in Seagrove, owned by a pilot.  Of course we had to check in out for the Bears/Packers.  Who knew a fire pit could be so wonderful at the beach?!

It was a lovely trip and really hard to come back to reality, when reality is unpacking from moving, unpacking from vacation and going back to work.

Beach Vacation

We have just a few days left of our beach vacation.  The boys are off golfing this morning, so the ladies are just lounging around.  The week started off great with an Auburn win!  Ryan and I then had a very long, quiet ride down to the beach to meet my family.  We have done nothing but lounge around on the beach and it has been wonderful.  Throw in a few games of boccie ball, some snorkeling, a little reading, beautiful sunsets and that creates a little bit of heaven.

Yesterday morning we ventured out to our favorite breakfast spot, The Donut Hole.  Ryan and Wade proceed to order the "Diet" Plate.  Needless to say, nothing about it was diet, scrambled eggs, cheese, gravy, biscuits, sausage, hash browns.  They didn't eat until dinner.  We also visited our favorite dinner spot, The Back Porch, which is in Destin, right on the beach.  Wade and Ryan took to The Track after dinner.  I'm not big on go carts, so I sat this one out.

Just a few shots from our trip!

Now, I'm going to go enjoy a little more sun and sand before we have to pack up to head home.
