life's a beach!

We went to Destin last week with my family and had a wonderful trip! We got there Sunday night and left Friday morning. The girls loved the water and the weather was perfect. I dont think i have ever been to destin and it not rain a drop! The drive certainly took longer than it used to! ha We got there in about 9 hours and the girls did great in the car, until we go to the florida line, then Ramsey had enough! At least we had Nana and Daddy Jack to entertain them ;) Rob and Amber met us there, they went to New orleans a few days before. I took over 400 pictures...i couldn't help myself..my subjects were too cute and my camera is awesome...have i told you how much i am obsessed with my camera?! yes i know i have ;) I have picked one ok maybe three or four...pics from each day to share with you! Enjoy

Their First day!
checking out the water
and the sand
For dinner, we picked up food from Sarah K's Gourmet. I highly recomend this if you are in Destin. She has everything made for you, you pick it up and bake it. We had crab cakes, shrimp mac and cheese, and biscuits! Yummy Yummy
Evie..my little crab cake :)
Tuesday, the girls were fearless. Evie would run towards the water, sit down and let the waves crash on her and laugh. It was so cute. Ramsey had fun playing in the sand and walking the beach with Nana.
Hi Daddy!
For dinner we went to the Red Bar, another place you have to go to.
It used to be an old general store in Grayton Beach and they have jazz music every night.
While we waited for a table we headed down to the beach.
Wednesday, another beautiful morning at the beach. We dug a hole and the girls sat in it forever.We kept filling it with water and they had a ball.
My favorite pic of the week :)
Playing with Nana
That afternoon we went to the outlets then attempted some christmas card pics...didn't turn out so well, they were having none of it! Its getting harder to get them to sit next to each other and smile! ha
They still look pretty sweet :)
Finally Nana made them laugh :)
That night we went to Baytowne Warf . We ate dinner, listened to music and rode the carousel...someone did NOT want to get off! haha
Thursday they played with their cute sand pales and kept wanting them filled with water.
I love that they play well together.
We saw this expression all week. She was definitely in her element!!
So much that she literally passed out on jonathans shoulder while they were still in the ocean, so he layed down with her and then attempted to pry his arm out from under her. She slept a good hour and then still took her usual 3 hour afternoon nap! worn out!
After nap time Daddy Jack got them wound up!
We ate our last meal on the beach at Pompano Joes while enjoying another beautiful sunset!
We headed home Friday morning, but not without a stop at the Donut Hole!
Bye Bye Beach..see ya next year!!
