Gulf Shores...Day 4

Day 4 was a very exciting day!  The boys and some of the kids went Deep Sea Fishing so Stephanie and I decided to take the remaining children for some go ole fashion fun.  Go Karts, Putt-Putt, rides and perhaps we ended the excursion with a little Ice Cream.  Yep, we're awesome like that.  Bennett really liked the rides and he tolerated the Putt-Putt for about 9 holes and then he was done-ski.  Reid and Nolan were apparently competing in Speed Golf though so it didn't take long for them to finish (and probably piss off the people in front of them) and catch back up with us for some more rides.  Good times, good times.

Now I'm going to tell you about one of my favorite parts of the trip...crab hunting/catching!  We all know about my love of Easter, right?  It is the thrill of the hunt that always excited me.  Well crab hunting is like even better because the "eggs" MOVE!  Gwen brought flashlights and nets for all of the kids and when it got dark we headed down to the beach to see just how many crabs we could find...and catch.  It was SO MUCH FUN.  This is a must for anyone going to the beach.  I called my Mom later that week and asked if we ever did this as a kid, because I surely did not remember doing it.  She confirmed...we did not.  I was so deprived, thank goodness my kids aren't!  This was definitely one of the highlights of the trip for the kids (and adults)!
