Day One: Travel. We left Saturday about 5am. Drove 9 hours to New Orleans. Spent the evening seeing New Orleans and then woke up and drove the last 4 hours to Destin!

She did soo good on the trip!!
We finally arrived!!
Day Two: Sunday. Unpacking, Shopping and about an hour on the beach. We got to Destin at about 2, unpacked our stuff and then headed down to the beach to check it out. We were about a 2 minute walk from the beach. Our house was awesome! Me, Jonny, and Payton got the master suite! It was heavenly!
The tides brought seaweed to the beach every evening but it was gone by morning
Payton HATED the sand and water the first day and a half. But once we bought water shoes and she got use to walking on the sand- she was rolling in it
Our little house :)
Yeah we practically bought wal-mart. 5 shopping carts.
Day 3. Monday. We spent the whole day on the beach. It was glorious. We had a tent and baby pool set up for Donovan and Pay Pay. The weather was perfect! The night we spent playing games and watching movies!
The Sand and Water were amazing!
How cute is she??
Me and the big bro
Day 4: Tuesday. My dad and two brothers spent the morning golfing. So the rest of the crew went down to the boardwalk and walked around, shopped, and ate some good seafood. Then we spent the rest of the day on beach. Maddie and Zach arrived that night.
Love them :)
Our Lunch View
Day 5: Wednesday. Another full day on the beach. Soaking up the sun. Payton was loving the water and sand today.
Laying in the sun
My best frand... Love her dearly
Me and my baby girl
Day 6: Thursday. We rented a pontoon boat for the day. We cruised around the bay and visited crab island. The water was clear but the sand was brown so it wasn't so pretty to look at. But we found tons of crabs and it was lots of fun! That night we continued our family tradition of playing putt putt. Of course, dad won! Jonny left about 5 am Fridaay to make it in time for Brad's wedding.
They HATED their life vests at first but after about 5 minutes they forgot all about them
She loves her pickles
Crabs!
Love my family
She Fell asleep like this. Resting on her daddy. It was so stinking cute
Day 7: Friday. It was our last full day and of course we spent it at the beach. The boys golfed in the morning and joined us at the beach after. That evening we spent on the boardwalk. There was music, entertainment, food, shops, train rides for the kids, and lots of fun stuff.
Riding the train. She was beyond tired
The girls
Sweet
Saturday, we spent the morning/day shopping and then hit the road to head home. We drove straight through and arrived in Arlington at about 2am. Destin was a lot of fun and we had a great time! It was fun to get the whole family together and do nothing but relax for the week. Now, its back to reality!
Yeah this melts my heart
Thanks mom and dad for a great time. We are blessed!!!
I took about 300 pictures. I will be posting more on facebook later so look out for them!
