Goodbye Virginia Beach!

D’s flight is on time and he’ll be home soon! He sent me one last picture of the beach before his flight departed so that I can share it with you. We can’t wait to have him back home! 1:20 pm update – D texted me. There’s a power outage in Baltimore. He’s still on […]

Virginia Beach, Day Two

Spoke to my hubby this afternoon. His presentation went well today. He said they had a group dinner on the deck overlooking the ocean so he was able to chill out and walk out on the beach. He even waded into the water! We can’t wait to pick him up from the airport tomorrow and […]

Virginia Beach, VA

My sweet husband is in Virginia Beach this week for a business trip, and thankfully he’s able to see the ocean! It’s been far too long, and I hope he’s able to have some down time and enjoy the ocean and sand. I know tonight there’s going to be some fun involving a go cart, […]

Last day on the beach

We managed to make it to the beach one more time before the long drive home. I already miss the beach and can’t wait for our next trip! A few things we noticed during this trip: there are a lot of butterflies at the beach Alabama grows a lot of cotton Alabama has a lot […]

Sharks, Alligators, and Penguins, Part II!

We finally made it to the Gulfarium in Fort Walton Beach today. We saw a lot of cute marine animals today. Nurse sharks, tortoises, African penguins, dolphins, alligators, fake caimans (at least they looked fake), seals, sea horses, crabs, and more. On our way back we stopped at the Harbor Walk in Destin and had […]

Sharks, Penguins, and Alligators, Oh My!

L objected to going to the beach again, so we’re off to Gulfarium. A local aquarium in Fort Walton Beach. Stay tuned for pics!

A day with no plans

Would you believe we spent 5 hours at the beach? We had no plans and spent the day relaxing on the beach listening to the waves crashing on the shore. The water was so clear and we saw so many fish swimming near our feet! We also saw a pirate ship sail past and shoot a […]

Putt Putt Golf!

On our way to dinner we stopped at a local attraction in Destin and played some miniature golf. Regardless what the score card says, I still think L cheated a little.

The Beach!

Well it only took us half a day today, but we finally made it to the beach. We were only there for a few hours before the family got hungry and sleepy. As I type this D is napping and L is watching TV. Looking forward to dinner tonight when we head over to Pompano Joe’s for […]

Sun, Sand, and Surf

As I write this we’re traveling through Alabama on our way to the Florida panhandle. It’s been years since we’ve seen the beach and we thought it was time to go. I’ve been looking forward to this mini-vacation for WEEKS! Hopefully I can post some pictures of our visit for you to enjoy!
