Fall Break 2015 Destin FL!

Warning:  Photo overload!   We had a great trip.

We love Fall Break beach trips.   There is something about as it gets a little cooler here one last bit of the ocean, warm sand and pool that is good for the soul.  


Sunday Bella snuggles! 

still waking up from Sunday nap

Mommy was out of town before we left for vacation so Daddy let the girls sleep in our bed.  They look so sweet snuggled! 

Nothing better than Bella snuggles to help wake up.  Check out those smiles! 
Let vacation begin!    Our favorite Mexican restaurant.  

Chickened into the hotel to get a good night sleep before we enjoy the pool, shopping and beach.  

Look at those pretty girls! 

soaking in some rays of sun while the girls swim

Gracie loves the pool! 

because we are on vacation... resting!  
Everyone else was in and we met for lunch.   

ready to hit the pool before dinner 

someone fell asleep on the way to ice cream! 

Yummy!  Blue Mountain Ice Cream at Santa Rosa!

We love trips with family! 

Gracie was just as tired coming back from ice cream

Day 2 was an full day at the beach building sand castles (and some other things off script), surfing and just enjoying time together!  The beach is so much fun in different ways as the girls have gotten older and I just take in each moment of what they enjoy.   

I could sit here for days! 

Maggie is hit or miss on how much she wanted to in the water.  It was a little chilly. 

Grammy and Papa sure had fun watching all the grands play!

Sandcastle lesson and the girls were closely watching. 

It's starting to take shape... 


Gracie and Ally working on their own castle 

Maggie decided to do her own too! 



Aunt Tammy and I worked on this sea creature!  It was so much fun.   

Family picture with all the objects we created 

We sure love this crew! 



These are the world to me!   

Grammy and Papa with the grand girls 

all the grads! 

a little wave surfing 

Love her expression! 

the gymnast! 



I am going to miss this toothless smile when those front teeth come in! 

a man close by build the girls the dog! 

Cousins are the best! 

sleepy girl! 
Day 3 was a colder day at ate beach, but we managed to enjoy every minute!  We played TidalBall, enjoyed the sand, lots of snacks (ha), and laughed until our bellies hurt as Jimmy and Tammy played on the whales!

Where is Gracie's body? 

Maggie was cold and a little tired so the whale made a good napping spot.

After too much sun the say before and it being cooler too Gracie had to wear a swim shirt for some of the day.  The waves were huge this day! 


Loves from Grammy and Papa!



I pray they know how blessed they are to have each other and that they are always this close! 


This picture does not do the waves, the whale and the family justice.  Watching Jimmy and Tammy ride these in the waves and be knocked off was a priceless memory for all of us! 

Gracie was not as excited about the experience. 
taking in the ocean one last time! 

The one had had enough! 

Back to the house to clean up fro dinner to celebrate Tammy's master's graduation.   
My Mini Me!


My polar opposite that I adore beyond words! 

After dinner it was decided the girls needed airbrush shirts to remember the trip!  What an experience getting them to all pick shirts and designs.   We were patiently waiting.  

headed home and they had to wear their new shirts.  I must say I do love them! 

Snuggled in her new shirt

Back home and the first night of swim team this year!   Gracie did great and enjoyed being back. 

We made it through the week back, Mommy traveling and celebrated with a family fire night!   Perfect night! 

Saturday lunch with this cutie!   We love you Ellie!
