Vacation

We had so much fun!!! We went to Orange Beach in Alabama. About 4yrs ago we went to Orange Beach with Taiah (2yrs old). It was so much fun to watch her then and even more fun now. Seeing Lydia run and play on the beach reminded me so much of Taiah when she was little except in a whole different personality (maybe it was just the looks). Anyway it was good to get away and just relax. The weather was gorgeous, a little cool at night and in the mornings. You had to wait until about 11am before you could go swimming. It was not at all crowded, Although it seemed everyone we talked to was from good ole TENNESSEE. There were quiet a few families there with kids on fall break.
I think Lydia's favorite thing was between the water fountains in the pool, to finding different things on the beach (shells, crabs, jellyfish), to playing in the sand. Taiah's favorite thing was, well anything to do with water and swimming. Josh enjoyed playing with the girls. He doesn't get to spent a whole lot of time with them because he works so much, so I think his favorite thing was just spending 6 days with all his girls. My favorite thing was the sound, the smell and the breezes of the gulf. I also think we all had fun playing put-put golf and of course the arcade. All and all I thank God for this beautiful world we live in and the wonderful trip we were blessed with.
Love this pic...........Wish my feet were in the sand right now!!!
Our Sandcastle??? Maybe we can call it that. It took us a while and was still there a couple of days after we made it.
