This summer we spent our family vacation with Chad's whole family. That's right, 20+ people in one house and we all survived! Our family had been to Destin a few years ago and loved it, so we were crossing our fingers that we weren't over-selling it to Chad's family and I don't think we did. We had such a great time. Our boys are at such a great age for vacation. They are really embracing all of the different activities and are so much fun. Here's hoping Little Miss embraces the same adventure seeking spirit, or is a really great spectator...one or the other. This year the kids were really into boogie boards and skim boards and metal detecting (or metal protecting as Bennett refers to it). We didn't find the fit bit that Bennett set out to find, but we did find some bottle caps and tent stakes, woohoo! Another favorite activity was finding crabs at Crab Island. Don't worry they are just hermit crabs and we quickly returned them to their natural habitats at the bottom of the ocean floor. The boys also went on their first official snorkeling trip, which was great fun until Nolan and I swam through some sort of stinging something and had to get sprayed with some concoction to relieve the stinging sensation. I mean we had to have some sort of mishap right? Can't be all rainbows and unicorns on our vacations! We also hit up the Pirate Cruise again this year, which is always a hit with both kids and adults.
Destin, you did not disappoint. We will be back, I will not be pregnant and I will join in the fruity drink fun. That's a promise.
