One last vacation...

We were able to take one last beach vacation with my parents the first week in August. The weathered cooperated wonderfully, no one got burnt (ha!) and we all had a good time. Maddie and Landon were little fish in the water while the twins were a little apprehensive. They eventually didn't mind the big pool however they didn't care too much for their flotation devices....both liked mom and dad's arms better! One of my favorite things about the beach is the FOOD. I am all about some good food and seafood at that. Although we had some good meals at the condo we enjoyed Cotton's, the buffet at Hazel's(can I say Grey and I put them out of business with their crablegs!) and Grey and I were able to have a date night where we tried Doc's Seafood Shack. All were very good. Grey and I have a tradition every year where we play putt-putt golf. Can I say PURE DOMINATION...yes by me!!! All of us took a ride on the Ferris Wheel at the wharf...which my dad was not excited to get on...but he was talked into it and couldn't believe Rylee and Reagan were gonna ride too. There is no trip to the beach without playing games or a go-cart ride. Boys v. Girls (Grey & Landon and Me & Maddie) Again, girls rule! Fun times.

A visit from some Louisiana folks!

We were privileged to have a visit from my Aunt Grace, cousin Kathryn and her girls Kylie and Lorie last week. They came Wednesday afternoon and unfortunately left after lunch the next day to continue on there trip. I have to say it was much to short a visit but enjoyed the company while it lasted! Landon and Maddie had a good time playing a little bit of everything with Kylie and Lorie and the twins didn't seem to mind either. As soon as they were pulling out of the driveway, Landon asked...."when are they gonna come visit again?" Ok Kathryn....like I said, yall are welcome anytime!

Unfortunately, time to say good-bye!

Silly sisters!

I have never really known to many 15 month olds who like sunglasses but both Rylee and Reagan LOVE them! They will keep them on for a while and once they remove them they insist you put them right back on. Aren't they so stinkin' cute?

Maddie's haircut

A few Saturday's ago Grey needed a haircut and so we thought it was about time Maddie had her's cut too! Well, it's not much different from before just 3 inches shorter but much needed. It makes it a little easier to manage in that she is VERY tender-headed and hates to brush her hair most of the time!

Funny Rylee

I guess she decided her toe was better than what she was having for supper!!!

Blue Angels-Pensacola Beach

Yesterday we had the opportunity to go see the Blue Angels and spend a day at the beach in Pensacola with some of Grey's family. With a little help from memaw and pawpaw, the twins stayed at home...I guess I should say BIG help!!! Grey's cousin Matthew lives in Pensacola now so we went over to see his new condo and spend the day with Deborah, Kenny, Matthew, Amanda(Matthew's girlfriend) and a few other people. What a fun day it was....and HOT! Landon and Maddie had a great time being bombarded by waves and searching for shells! Despite the heat, they were such troopers. The day began when we left for Pensacola around 7am and didn't return until after 5pm. Needless to say we were all spent but well worth the trip. I have always wanted to see the Blue Angels and it wasn't a disappointment. They were pretty cool!
