Secure Art

Lucas has watched big brother many times as he carefully chooses magnets to properly hang his artwork. Now it was his turn, the problem, maybe too many magnets, no I believe it was a safety issue. Kaila's become really good at swiping papers off the fridge if hung too low so he went for pure security with his masterpiece!

 

A Few More Vacation Favorites

The Best Beach Day

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day today. The weather was amazing and having a chance to get away and just be a family was precious. After enjoying some yummy beignets at a local cafe for breakfast, Aaron and I took the kids to the beach to search for sand dollars and play in the sand. They had a blast and Aaron and I enjoyed every second watching them. I hope times like this could last longer...

Girls Night

After some quick planning the girls decided to have dinner out to celebrate a couple birthdays and spend some time together. It was a beautiful view with great company!

 The guys stayed back with the kids for pizza and cousin Katie helped keep all the little ones smiling. The boys had another busy day and practically put themselves to bed.

A Full Day...

Today was a mix of beach and pool time, shopping, a zoo trip for Owen, a nice evening beach walk for the boys, and of course melting tired kids that sleep once their heads hit the pillow, or in our case pillow pets. The weather has been gusty but otherwise perfect and sunny, great for doing a bit of everything or nothing! Here's a couple highlights of our day. More photos to come soon...

After many travels to Gulf Shores the zoo was new to all. Owen was spoiled by his Aunties, Grandma, and animal lover cousin Kaitlyn who brought him on this special outing. This photo of his adventure was a huge highlight!
